Frontperson Kitty A. Austen, explains, “I wrote ‘Get Them Out’ for a friend who would listen to the bullying and the antagonistic voice in his head and believe it. I wanted him to see himself the way I do, as a beautiful person, and to treat himself better. This is my favorite riff on the record: It’s a constant, revving build-up of tension, like an agitated, mental state that allows for no comfort or resolution. This was the first song that Jim Pinder (Sleep Token, Bring Me The Horizon) mixed from the record, and it set the blueprint:
crushing, spitty industrial balanced with expansive, melancholic beauty.”

The visualizer is a direct homage to Nine Inch Nails‘ video for “March of the Pigs.”
“We had an hour to spare at the end of filming for another song so we decided to do a one-take, live rendition of ‘Get Them Out’ as an homage to our favourite music video of all time. No edits, one shot, make-up artist cameo, and all. I’m sure people will hate us for it,” says Kitty.
