After recently announcing their new album 'Play With Fire' is set for release August 21 via Suicide Squeeze Records, Californian garage rock trio L.A. Witch are sharing their new single, the reverb-weighted 'Gen-Z'.
"'Gen-Z' is inspired by a series of articles mentioning the high rates of suicide amongst the Gen-Z due to the pressures of social media," says guitarist and vocalist Sade Sanchez. "At the same time I read about several music companies not doing well due to lack of interest in people to learn to play instruments. When I was a kid, music and guitar was my escape. Music was how I fought through my depressions.
"What will the future do to get through it? With constant pressure to be perfect and information/ advertisements and brainwashing constantly being shoved in your face, you become a product of your environment. 'Gen-Z' is about being a slave to technology, specifically to our phones."
