I had a lot going on back then and I hid behind bravado a lot. I suppose it’s al some telling my younger self that it’s OK to have been that angry when I went through a bunch of trauma that I couldn’t process well enough to deal with it all. I was a kid.”“ The western world is privileged because it has pillaged resources from everyone else in the world. We need to unlearn what we know and recognise the suffering people are going through as a result of our greed. Can I Get Off?i s an outpouring of my frustrations about that and, ultimately, the reason we are fund raising for Mercy Without Limits.”7”single and T-Shirt bundles preorder: https://milliemanders.bigcartel.com/category/double-a-side Known for their ferocious and joyous lives hows and championed by the likes of the BBC Radio 1Rock Show, BBC Introducing, Radio X and Vive Le Rock, the band will release their second album later this year.
