CNTS, featuring members of Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui, have dropped a Meriel O’Connell-directed video for their latest single, “I Won’t Work For You.” The track is taken from their upcoming album, Thoughts & Prayers, scheduled to arrive on March 29 via Ipecac Recordings.

 Matt Cronk comments:

 “’I Won’t Work For You’ was inspired by the talking point being bandied about, mostly by conservatives, that ‘nobody wants to work anymore’ after having collected unemployment during the lockdown. I think a more accurate way to frame that is that nobody wants to work for people who treat them badly. Nobody wants to work without the expectation of fair pay and dignity. Nobody wants to work for the sole purpose of enriching someone else, and nor should they! Work sucks. I think a lot of people, myself included, are inspired to find more equitable means of supporting themselves or at least expect more from their employers.”

Michael Crain adds:

 “Bosses suck.”
