A dark true-life tale wrapped in a dissonant jangle that imagines Richard Thompson playing the Velvet Underground, ‘Present Tense’ is the latest new track from Glasgow-based slanted indie-rock five-piece Savage Mansion. Released as part of Lost Map’s PostMap Club subscription service in the month of December (b/w ‘Night School’), it’s the latest taste of the band’s forthcoming fourth album The Shakes, which will be released on limited-edition 12” vinyl and digital services on February 16, 2024. It’s Savage Mansion’s most exciting record yet – a set of 11 songs which better than ever capture the explosive live energy of a band whose best gig is always their next gig, rooted in a deep well of emotion, and the rigorously thought-through reasoning of writers thoroughly in love with their influences.
 
“This is a band favourite,” says Craig about ‘Present Tense’. “I didn’t think much of it at the time, but the minute Andy and I started playing it together it felt like a keeper. It’s about my high school English teacher who had an affair with a kid. It was messy and horrible, and registering it as a 13/14-year-old you didn’t really take it in properly. I remember bringing it up at the pub and everyone had a similar story, at least one. The themes of the record are varied but I suppose it’s reckoning with the animal inside us. This is the extremity of that thematic idea. That sort of impulse… I don’t have to cast judgement on it. What is there to say? Some things are inexcusable.”
