Gen And The Degenerates have unveiled a brand-new single and video, Kids Wanna Dance.

The track opens the band’s upcoming debut album Anti-Fun Propaganda (due out on February 23 via Marshall Records), and according to vocalist Genevieve Glynn-Reeves is about “trying to reconcile the knowledge that the future of our world is very uncertain, getting up each day and trying to build a life for ourselves. Beyond that, we all want to find a way to make those lives enjoyable.”

Genevieve continues: “Not only is the quality of life getting lower, but our politics and economy are volatile; we have to ask ourselves questions like, ‘Is it even ethical to have children?’ because of the state that previous generations have left the planet in.

“It seems that if people want to spend all their time making stupid videos on TikTok or spend all their money frivolously, then why shouldn’t they? There are no stable careers, and they won't be able to afford a house anyway. We all need to find the joy we can and each find our way of dancing through the end times.”
