3TEETH have revealed yet another new single from their upcoming album Metawar. This new single, “President X”, introduces a character of the same name joining the band’s already quite colourful cast, a character who simultaneously appears to be a play on some of the more outrageous conspiracy theories surrounding American political figures and a not-so-subtle commentary on the current situation of American politics.
Frontman Alexis Mincolla had this to say about the new song: “PRESIDENT X is about an arbitrary figure head that will continue to be replaced, repositioned and repackaged to maintain an illusion of choice and difference in a system that operates on auto-pilot. As the administration pendulum swings back and forth in our bi-partisan shit show, you basically get a new leader who comes in with the goal of undoing what the last guy did, continuing this cycle of futility. It’s like one of those TV shows that just keeps going on season after season, walking you in circles by throwing in new hackneyed characters and the same trite notions of conflict but in reality the story has no arc and no resolution and by the time the season finale comes, oh and it will come, you’re going to look back on it go holy fuck I want my money back… and no I’m not talking metaphorical money, I’m talking about your actual tax dollars that funded a hot trash show. I believe there was a fine scholar by the name of Frank Zappa who once said ‘Government is the Entertainment division of the military-industrial complex.”
3TEETH are currently preparing for their European tour with Ministry starting June 30th and their North American tour starting July 15th. They’ve also announced an album release party, happening July 5th at London’s very own Electrowerkz; get all the info about it here.
