Mandy, Indiana share brand new single "Drag [Crashed]"
Manchester-based experimental noise quartet Mandy, Indiana present “Drag [Crashed]" – the final preview from their much anticipated debut album, i’ve seen a way.
Recorded in caves, crypts and shopping malls, i've seen a way transcends genre. As producer/guitarist Scott Fair explains, “We wanted to alter textures, create clashes, and craft those moments when what you’re expecting to happen never comes.”
"Drag [Crashed]", as Caulfield explains, "is a collection of things that were said to me or about me because I’m a woman. From middle-aged men saying I would ‘pop some fly buttons’ to my dad and that he would need a gun to fend off the boys when I was a literal toddler, to educators telling me my shoulders would ‘distract the boys’ and I therefore needed to cover myself, and romantic partners trying to control my body, ‘Drag’ is a personal exploration of what it means growing up a girl.”
The single is accompanied by a video directed by Ella Margolin (Porridge Radio, Jessica Winter) and featuring movement direction by Jacquelyn Tepper.
i’ve seen a way is out on 19 May via Fire Talk.
