Ashnikko has unleashed the epic title track from her highly-anticipated new album, WEEDKILLER, out June 2nd via Warner Records. Arriving just one week ahead of her debut Coachella performance, the track dives deeper into the dystopian fantasy concept behind the upcoming album, complete with arresting hooks and the atmosphere of a post-apocalyptic action film.
Ashnikko said of the song, “This is the song that spawned the whole album. It’s the climax of the record, the epic fight scene in the wasteland. Swords drawn, roots deep into the ground, I have come here to photosynthesize and eliminate the weedkillers. It is a violent fantastical storytelling set in my realm.”
WEEDKILLER was thoughtfully crafted alongside longtime collaborators Slinger and Oscar Scheller [Charli XCX, PinkPantheress, Rina Sawayama] as a poetic commentary on environmental disaster and the rapid evolution of technology.
