Toledo share two new singles 'Flake' + 'What Happened to the Menorah?'

Flake’, like any good song about deadbeat dads, hits it’s climax as TOLEDO harmonizes on the heartbreaking, and empowering, line; “I fucking hate / your guts right now”. The new single traces the path to finding yourself from beneath the weight of generational trauma. TOLEDO don’t pretend to be perfect; accepting and acknowledging the oftentimes messy and painful path to growth. Ending with a resolute decision to not look back, refusing to venture back into the fray of a fraught and painful relationship with a parent who will continue to cause you harm, they sing “and I could take the hand that you're reaching out / but you’d only disappoint / you did it then / you’ll do it now.”

Speaking to ‘Flake’, TOLEDO writes: “It’s one step forward, two steps back. Sometimes when you feel like you’re heading in the right direction, you slip up and fall back into old habits. You only have yourself to blame, but aren’t your parents to blame for how you end up? It’s really a fuck you to myself and my dad. Our legacy of shit. Sonically it’s Barenaked Ladies meets Fleetwood Mac. And that’s Twitch live streamer Dakotaz in the opening of the song! Accidentally caught in the recording crossfire.”
