Snapped Ankles
Snapped Ankles are back with new single “Drink and Glide”. They find themselves in the tree-lined cul-de-sacs of the suburbs that surround the concrete forest of the citadel. Amongst the trees here are wooden posts with “For Sale” and “To Let” written in bold type. A new forest. Promises, promises.
They glimpse the sportswear-clad inhabitants busying themselves in their quest for physical and mental fitness, only to obliterate their senses at every opportunity. ‘Drink and Glide’ into this fast-paced living: the once revolutionary 1960s counter-cultural ideals now co-opted into lifestyle classes to enhance one’s sense of “betterness”.
Snapped Ankles eye up those in search of self-improvement through casual mindfulness while self-medicating to survive the mundanity of suburban living with mind-altering concoctions borrowed from the internet. The dose becomes the word. The word is… “Turn up, drop in and weigh out!”
New album “Snaps II” will be released early next year, with tour dates in November supporting Here Lies Man and Beak.
