DC band, Flasher have announced their signing with Domino Records. along with the news, the trio have shared a new video for the song, “Skim Milk.” The band will hit the road for a lengthy tour, starting March 14th at SXSW 2018.

Flasher on “Skim Milk”:

“The themes in “Skim Milk” and its video might be described as being haunted by your own desire for belonging. We’re not bemoaning “no future, no fate”, we’re advocating for it. From getting a mortgage, to going to college, to crafting public policy, folks are always telling you to think of your future, to make choices in the name of some future. But most folks don’t have the privilege to live outside the present. This kind of future tense, aspirational bullshit means being held hostage by a future that’s already abandoned you. We’d rather escape to something new and unknown than hold out for a good life that hates us and expects us to make lemonade out of miserableness. Instead of holding out and hanging on, we’re here to tell you (and ourselves) – “go.””

Flasher are Taylor Mulitz (guitar), Daniel Saperstein (bass) and Emma Baker (drums).
