A 1963 psychological thriller novel meets punk rock in catchy new single ‘The Collector’ out now from Aussie-Berlin-bound punks Lady Lazarus. A track with messaging in line with Amyl and the Sniffers‘ ‘Tiny Bikini’, Lady Lazarus’ new single is fresh, classic punk, and fun despite it’s creepy background.
“Fowles’ novel tells the disturbing story of a man who collects butterflies – until he decides to ‘collect’ a woman instead. Lady Lazarus transform this narrative into a biting metaphor for the way patriarchal control and objectification persist in modern society.”
