Savages' Jehnny Beth has released an incendiary, industrial new track today called 'I’m The Man', which comes as part of the Peaky Blinders soundtrack.
The song - which was first featured in the fourth episode of the show’s current season - is the second solo work to come from Jehnny Beth, after her soundtrack for the Chelsea Manning documentary, XY Chelsea.
“‘I’m The Man’ is an attempted study on humankind,” says Jehnny. “What we define as evil and the inner conflict of morality. Because it is much easier to label the people who are clearly tormented by obsessions as monsters than to discern the universal human background which is visible behind them. However, this song has not even a remote connection with a sociological study, collective psychology, or present politics; It is a poetic work first and foremost. Its aim is to make you feel, not think.”
Listen to ‘I’m The Man’ below.
