Scotland’s Bratakus have announced that they have signed to Venn Records and have released their new single and video, Final Girls, that was recorded and produced at Studio Gröndahl in Sweden with Johan Gustafsson (The Hives). The accompanying music video is an ode to the horror classic Carrie which sees the band get soaked in blood.

“Final Girls is a song about the horror movie trope of the ‘Final Girl’ and all the rules they have to follow in order to survive the movie. The song talks about how the rules and standards that these characters have to abide by reflect the unspoken rules that society puts in place for women. Women are taught that we have to behave in a certain way, present ourselves in a certain way and deny ourselves certain things in order to stay safe or be treated with respect. This song is calling that out. We should not live in fear for simply existing in the way that we choose. The narrative needs to change around these situations. People need to stop putting the onus on women and girls and holding us to very outdated standards.” (guitarist & vocalist Brèagha Cuinn)
