Wednesday are preparing to release their new album Rat Saw God on April 7 via Dead Oceans. They've already shared the singles "Bull Believer," "Chosen to Deserve," and "Bath County." Today, they're releasing the fourth single "TV in the Gas Pump," which, among other things, features the most relatable lyric ever written about Panera Bread.
“This is the first song I’ve written about being on the road, and I really just wanted to collect all that imagery you ingest on tour,” vocalist Karly Hartzman explained. “A few images that made it in the song include: the never ending gas station stops that blend together and the dystopian gas pump advertisements, a stressful experience in a Panera Bread and a story of coming up from taking what you thought was a microdose of shrooms in a Dollar General."
The single also comes with a surreal, somewhat unsettling video directed by Lewis Dahm. “This video is a result of Karly's sicko vision of the Arresting Beauty of the American South. That vision was digitized by local freak-on-a-leash Lewis Dahm," Dahm added. Watch it below.
