“Each and every facet of American life has become a scam”: Listen to Teen Mortgage let off steam on new single, Democracy Manifest

Teen Mortgage have a new song out called Democracy Manifest, in which they’re tearing their hair out about the current state of US politics (aren’t we all?)

"Democracy Manifest manifested itself naturally. As the USA draws closer to resembling Big Brother and Oceania in 1984, we needed to vent our frustrations around having to engage with a society that takes everything and gives little to nothing back; each and every facet of American life has become a scam," the band declares.

They’ve also got a quirky new animated video to go with it - check it out below.

Democracy Manifest follows up the punk duo's debut album, Devil Ultrasonic Dream, which dropped last year.
