Garbage have released a new single, Get Out My Face AKA Bad Kitty.
Fiercely defiant, the politically-charged track deals in the band's signature grunge-pop sound with electronic elements, while addressing the ongoing challenges women face in America. Vocalist Shirley Manson explained:
"When I was young, I didn’t really notice how things worked. People like to shuffle older women off the lot, because you start to see the chessboard in a way you didn’t when you were younger. When you’re young, you’re wanting to get on with your life, have an adventure, do what you love, and you’re conditioned by the society that you grew up in, so a lot of the time you don’t see what’s going on. Then, as you get older, you start to see how things are stacked up against some of us – not all of us.
"I am outraged by the way the world treats blacks and browns and gays and trans peoples and animals and women. Living in America over the last couple of years, the absolute war on women in America is astounding. All the rights that we felt had been secured are starting to get pushed back into the Middle Ages. It is something that I can no longer tolerate silently. It’s not just infuriating, it’s alarming. It’s frightening."
It follows There's No Future in Optimism in previewing their new album, 'Let All That We Imagine Be The Light', due out on May 30.
The four-piece will support the follow-up to 2021's 'No Gods No Masters' with their previously scheduled Happy Endings North American Tour between September and November, featuring support from special guests Starcrawler. Tickets are on sale now.
