Stand Atlantic have released a new single “molotov [OK]”, via Hopeless Records. Following the critical acclaim of their latest single “deathwish (feat. nothing, nowhere)”, the band are finishing 2021 with one of their most aggressive, punk/hardcore-leaning songs yet. Fans can stream “Molotov [OK]” here: https://ffm.to/statmolotov

One of the heaviest releases from Stand Atlantic yet, “Molotov [OK]” is an expression of rage and frustration at the religious/societal structures of homophobia that lead singer Bonnie Fraser encountered (and still continues to face) growing up in a religious environment. Fraser is using this release as a way to fight back against the harmful rhetoric that she faced and more importantly, as a way to signal to those who have been through similar situations that they are not alone.

On the song, she shares,“I went to a christian school for 3 years of my life and when a pastor says ‘all gays will burn in hell’ during an assembly, you’re gonna remember it, and you’re gonna write a song about it. It baffles me how someone can believe something so negative about someone yet act all nice and loving to your face and pretend to care about you. fuck that, i hope he hears this.”
