Track of the Day | Fake Dad – Machinery

Fake Dad have released their new single ‘Machinery’.

The track is taken from their forthcoming EP ‘Holly Wholesome and the Slut Machine’ due out on March 14th.

Speaking of the single, Andrea said: “This angry, teeth-grinding rock/pop track was written right after an industry showcase where every girl performing wore the exact same spike-studded bra—too concerned with sizing each other up to actually have a good time. As they eyed each other with loathing and borderline obsession, I stood in the corner feeling really sad that nobody was trying to connect, which is what we were all supposedly there to do. This song was written as a response to the way this kind of woman on woman (or more generally, artist on artist) hate perpetuates these spaces while the real culprits—our sick, sad society governed by narcissistic, billionaire white men—totally fly under the radar. In the end, the man is the real one we’re calling out. The one that we’re sick and tired of watching get what they want, while we sit back eating from their palm.”

‘Machinery’ is a powerful and gritty release, featuring captivating vocals that deliver an anthemic take on a serious issue. The track explores the experience of being a woman in the music industry, highlighting how female artists are often pitted against each other for the industry’s gain. More than just a catchy single, it carries a poignant message that demands to be heard.
