Atlanta, GA post punk / death disco band CDSM (aka Celebrity Death Slot Machine) have released their new single “Shady“, alongside an accompanying video.
Shady is an utmost cynical post-punk scorcher that poses the question: Since this world is run by money and the ones who have it, why not join them and give into your most-base desires? Along a synth bass-driven rhythm section, lurk spooky keys and distorted saxophone flurries, while the song’s protagonist schemes their way into “Vip access to the stash”.
The song in out now via Mothland. Get it here and watch the Tyler Jundt-directed video below.
CDSM “Shady” Lyrics:
Gimme just a little bit of cash
Money’s what I need
I’ll play the game, I’ll do a flip
And do a dance, and clap my hands
Vip access to the stash
I got that corporate greed
I’ll find a way to sell my soul
My heart and other less important parts
[1]
Kickbacks, a piece of the stack
I wanna get paid for doing something shady
I wanna be the one to look the other way
To be the guy under the table getting paid
Squeeze me just a
Little bit a dough, I wanna feel
To be the one with pockets full of cash
And hands that match
Penthouse and yacht made of gold, I want it all
Find a way to do it without working
Cause working is a fucking scam
Repeat [1]
Money, money
Gimme, gimme
Take me, take me
Gimme money
