female rock group Sleater-Kinney today he gave us a new single called “Say It Like You Mean It”a song that goes for the romantic and a little sad side of the band, driven by an almost pompous drum rhythm.

In this song, the band reflects on the dissolution of a romantic relationship and the frustration that arises when your soon-to-be ex simply doesn’t give you a clean breakup, as in it we hear Corin Tucker sing: “Say it like you mean it, I need to hear it before you go, say it like you mean it, this goodbye hurts when you go…” while a cinematographic instrumental takes us through intense emotions, as if it were a pot about to explode.

At the same time, in the music video directed by herself Carrie Brownsteinwe see the talented actress Smith-Cameron distraught in a fancy restaurant, drinking martinis and flirting against her better judgment, as it tells the story of a woman who has lost her sense of what is appropriate. Well, as he adds Brownstein In a press release:

“Sick with the alienation that comes from existing in a disparate emotional state with the person or people closest to her, she struggles with debilitating loss, longs to be seen, and dares you to leave.”

Of course the new album releases Little Rope which will be released on January 19, 2024 through Loma Vista, they prepare us for an emotional journey full of enthusiasm and a lot of passion. Here we leave you the new video clip!
