Alexa, play 'Hurry On Home' right tf now! Sleater_Kinney
Given what listeners have heard so far from Sleater-Kinney's upcoming ninth studio album, the St. Vincent-producedshowed one version of truth: that of modern women racked with the self-conscious anxiety that comes from a patriarchal society hellbent on making them hate themselves. Tellingly, one lyric goes:"You know I'm unfuckable/ Unloveable/ Unlistenable/ Unwatchable."
"The Center Won't Hold" offers a still-darker point of view: that of a progressive woman caught in the turmoil caused by the 2016 U.S. presidential collection. The song opens with a sort of slinky blues drag. Annie Clark's production feels as deliberate as the scrape of a ball and chain, capturing the fear of being trapped with no way out. Unfortunately, this sense of claustrophobia was induced in many Americans the day after election results were announced.
Brownstein sings backup, as if upholding sister Tucker in the existential struggle. When the song's repetitive"the center won't hold" refrain emerges, Janet Weiss' percussion builds and gives way to roaring guitars toward the end. The vocals alternate from pleading wail and intense whisper to full-on howl, displaying both a new desire to cut through the noise of fear, and a refusal to be defeated by it.
