Background
[edit]The song was first teased in a video released on the band's social media,[1] with an audio message from Way to Matlock saying "Why don’t you call that guy you really like, the shouty guy?"[2]
The idea for the track came from when the band supported featuring artist Corey Taylor on his USA tour in 2023,[3] speaking with NME they described how Matlock "jumped on the mic" with Taylor during his set and their voices "sounded right together".[4]
