Following significant international support for "Ode To Clio", which saw the band added to the BBC 6 Music playlist for the first time, and August's "Grow A Tongue In Time", today the London-based group Man/Woman/Chainsaw share its follow-up with a noisy EP highlight in "The Boss", a song driven ever forward by its looping, propulsive violin and synth riff.
It's the third track to land from their anticipated debut EP, 'Eazy Peazy', landing November 8th on Fat Possum.
The band had the following to say about their new single:
"The Boss is the heaviest of the songs on the EP and definitely a live favourite of ours. We wanted to express our frustration with imbalanced power dynamics in our everyday lives with a big supermassive rant of a rock song.
In the writing process it began as a more standard punk tune until Emmie and Clio spontaneously improvised their interlocking violin/synth line that totally changed the direction of the song.
Working in the studio with Dan Fox of Gilla Band was fun and allowed us to experiment with getting the song to sound as spacey as we could get it - we particularly enjoyed recording the electric violin through guitar amps cranked to 10 while simultaneously manipulating a tape delay unit."
