Gen and the Degenerates have released the video for their new single Kids Wanna Dance, taken from their forthcoming debut album ANTI-FUN PROPAGANDA.
“This song is about trying to reconcile the knowledge that the future of our world is very uncertain, getting up each day and trying to build a life for ourselves. Beyond that, we all want to find a way to make those lives enjoyable,” says vocalist Genevieve Glynn-Reeves.
“Not only is the quality of life getting lower, but our politics and economy are volatile; we have to ask ourselves questions like ‘Is it even ethical to have children?’ because of the state that previous generations have left the planet in. It seems that if people want to spend all their time making stupid videos on TikTok or spend all their money frivolously, then why shouldn’t they? There are no stable careers, and they won’t be able to afford a house anyway. We all need to find the joy we can and each our way of dancing through the end times.”
ANTI-FUN PROPAGANDA is set for release on 23rd February via Marshall Records and is available to pre-order HERE.
The band will be playing a headline show at The Ferret in Preston on Saturday 13th January.
