Mandy, Indiana share new single “Drag [Crashed]”

Mandy, Indiana has shared another new single from their upcoming album i’ve seen a way, which is out May 19 via Fire Talk. Today they’ve released “Drag [Crashed]”, which is a tense and pounding industrial-techno/noise rock song that follows a pair of recent Essential Track picks. Check out the video below, directed by Ella Margolin.

Vocalist Valentine Caulfield said in a statement, “‘Drag [Crashed]’ 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.”
