Loose Articles release new music video for ‘Are You A Welder?’

LOOSE ARTICLES have released a new music video!

The new music video, for the track Are You A Welder?, is taken from the Manchester-based indie punk band’s upcoming debut album, Scream If You Wanna Go Faster, which is scheduled to be released later this month, via Alcopop! Records.

Speaking about the new song, the band says, “in the illusion of dominance, protection, and strength, society’s stereotype brings home the bacon on gender roles and occupation. Born out of a backseat taxi remark, Are You a Welder? sparks up ideas on gender roles centred on conceptions of masculinity and femininity. Career stereotypes claim that gender determines successes in particular jobs; attributes of either empathy or physical strength being ring-fenced for certain people. Firefighters, truck drivers, construction workers, plumbers, electricians—the notion of gendered jobs try to tell us that some occupations are more blokecore than others.”
