Last year, D.C.’s Bartees Strange released his critically acclaimed album Live Forever, and today he’s released a video for one of its highlight tracks, “Flagey God.” In a press release, Strange explained how the track came to be, “In my spare time, I make beats all the time. It’s honestly more fun than writing with guitars sometimes. ‘Flagey God ‘came from a really natural and comfortable place for me musically, despite its moodiness thematically.”
“Flagey God” takes its name from the Square in Brussels where Strange felt the thrill of infinite and unknown possibilities. “No one knew me there. I was super lost in my life at the time and confused about what to do next, but in Flagey, I felt like I was capable of anything…a Flagey God,” he said.
