Capital

Amyl and the Sniffers

(2021)
album: Comfort To Me

She is also developing her political consciousness, turning to books by the likes of Malcolm Gladwell to help her process the pandemic. “I never saw value in reading, and then I realised that I could be an intellectual weapon if I read.” Yuval Noah Harari’s ‌Sapiens influenced the song Capital, in which Taylor confronts the failings of the Australian government in the face of mounting crises such as the devastating bushfires, farmers affected by prolonged drought and the treatment of Indigenous Australians.

“Where I come in from, I don’t know much about this shit,” she says. “Nobody gets taught Indigenous history in school. You have to search for it if you want to learn about it. A big chunk of me is a straight-up, motherfucking bogan and I’m proud of that part, but I want to listen to other people. There’s probably heaps of people who feel the same way we do, but they get lumped in [as ignorant] because they like cars and ciggies.”
