MIKE’S DEAD SHARES OF THE TRACK:
"Bestrafe Mich (Punish Me) is just raw, aggressive sexual energy. Lately I feel like each release grows in power and ambition and Bestrafe Mich is probably one of the most "Mike's Dead" songs I've ever released. I have to be honest I didn't set out with the intention of writing a song like this; Bestrafe Mich started in my notes on my phone. I think I was driving and I remember thinking "punish me would be a really sick song name" and then googled the German translation for it. Weeks later I was working w/ my friend Jonathan who co-produced this with me, and everything just clicked. I wrote that pre chorus "I want you nails under my skin" part in maybe 3 minutes. It was one of those songs that just flowed out instantly and I think that translates to being a phenomenal end product. Insanely excited for people to hear this one (especially live) and get weird."

Doing a few shows with Motionless In White in that run too which will be massive. We just confirmed a July run too... we're gunning to do 100 shows this year haha."
