Written about mental health and financial struggles during lockdown, the song also channels Ella and Alex\u2019s own frustration at the UK government\u2019s handling of the pandemic. Mixing rap with punk and rave elements, the loud and bashful track draws inspiration from the likes of\u00a0Peaches, slowthai\u00a0and\u00a0The Prodigy\u00a0and pushes the duo\u2019s genre bending sound to a new extreme.

We saw friends and family lose their jobs and really struggle financially and mentally without having an outlet to vent, so we wanted to try to capture the frustration of it all whilst disguising it as a fun rave track. I think a lot of people will be able to relate to it, both in the UK and globally\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ella continues:&nbsp;<em>\u201cIt\u2019s a tongue in cheek song, but we really channeled our own personal frustration into it as well, especially at how badly everything has been handled by Boris and the UK government. How is it possible that it\u2019s been a year but there\u2019s still no significant financial support for the self employed? Why do we have one of the highest death counts in the world for such a small population? We should really be holding these people accountable for what\u2019s going on\u201d.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unafraid of tackling political and social issues head on in their lyrics, Cherryade have received a landslide of support from\u00a0TIME Magazine, Billboard Pride, The Guardian, The Line Of Best Fit, CLASH, MTV, Refinery29\u00a0and more, and their upcoming mixtape Ugly Truth, Vol. 1 sets to solidify them further as DIY one\u2019s to watch.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>London alt pop duo Cherryade have released\u00a0Scream, a lockdown cabin fever anthem giving a voice to a failed nation.
