Listen: Nots - Entertain Me

Memphis noise-punk foursome NOTS have announced their sophomore album and simultaneously shared incredible lead single 'Entertain Me'. As bandmember Natalie Hoffmann (vocals/guitar) points out, the snarling seven-minute track draws influences from experimental no wave, postpunk, and psychedelia while lyrically pointing a finger at "the cyclical, distorted nature of the song, addressing different facets of the grotesque horror show going on in American politics and how they are portrayed- the rise of Trump, the reality-TV-like nature of American news, the almost-forced compliance of the viewer, and the for-profit-constructed 'right' of the viewer, the consumer, to require constant entertainment in order to participate, and to live".

The new record, Cosmetic, is due out early September via Goner/Heavenly. In the meantime check this out...
