“I’m Better” by Flasher
Flasher have released their new single “I’m Better,” off their forthcoming album, Love Is Yours, out June 17th on Domino, and announce new tour dates. Freedom is a major thread throughout the album. While lead single “Sideways” evokes the liminal stillness-in-motion feeling of a long-distance drive, and “Love Is Yours” is about the roller-coaster highs and lows of a long-term relationship,“I’m Better” is more explicit and playful. It revels in guilt-free trash-talk, “bye-bitch!” energies, and the bliss of feeling a toxic relationship recede into the rearview. The duo is comprised of guitarist Taylor Mulitz and drummer Emma Baker
The band elaborates: “‘I’m Better’ is about leaving a toxic relationship and finding joy, freedom, and self assurance on the other side. We filmed the video in central Oregon during a brief escape from pandemic isolation in 2021. The footage captures the expansive feeling that comes with exploring a new place or path forward.”
