Don’t get “carsick” while listening to K.Flay’s new single! This follows her LP, MONO, which dropped in September. A visualizer for the song is a spiraling array that she warns on her Instagram Reel: “I am not responsible for any dizziness you may experience while watching.”
In true electro-alt fashion, the song incorporates dancey drum beats, in-your-face vocals, and bridging twinkle to give listeners a break from the chaos of it. “Screaming out I’d die for you/
But after all the stops and starts, crashes and carnage/I’m just carsick,” tears through the chorus to recount the unbridled trust while living in the frills of life becomes too much, but the cycle of sickness from it never stops.
“‘Carsick’ is about the moment you want to get off the ride,” says K.Flay, “when the chaos isn’t fun anymore. I tried to capture both the dizzying feeling of being in a toxic relationship and the freedom that comes with leaving it.”
