KNIFE BRIDE have today unleashed their new single ‘crucify’, which is exemplary of the Brighton quartet’s knack for marrying razor sharp riffage with pop sensibilities. The track comes as the band reveal that they’re self-releasing a brand new EP ‘sorry about the plague’ on 24th April, which also coincides with the next opportunity to catch their drama live and in the flesh on tour with Calva Louise in April / May.
Vocalist Mollie Clack says ‘crucify’
“is a conversation with myself - a ruthless interrogation of a past version of me. A public trial of someone who made mistakes that I’ve struggled to forgive. The song attempts to expose how easy it is to obsess over appearances - to decorate the house and call it a home, while the foundations quietly crumble beneath us. At its core, it’s a reflection on self-destructive behaviour and the ways we sabotage parts of our lives. The line, “life gave me lemons, I made poison,” aims to capture the idea that sometimes we don’t just mishandle what we’re given - we actively ruin it. There’s also a nod to Paramore in the lyric, “I’m in the business of destroying everything,” referencing Misery Business - a song the band stepped back from performing because of its more problematic lines. That reference is intentional. It’s a reminder that we can be flawed and messy and that reckoning with that truth is part of being human rather than self-censoring.”
