Ashnikko Breaks Down ‘Weedkiller’
Weedkiller by Ashnikko
‘Weedkiller’ is Ashnikko’s Debut album. Although she did already release her Mixtape Demidevil which many would consider an album. However, Weedkiller is her First actual complete studio album. The album is centred around the planet, and the environmental crisis that we face.
She describes it as a mix between Tank Girl and Mad max. She wanted to portray herself as the female warrior heroine with a big sword. Ashnikko says she’s done many survival courses and works towards Being that character.
The album is all about a dairy universe or planet which has been destroyed by industry, pollution and environmental crisis. However, she plays the protagonist feminist warrior girl. She is there to bring Justice. She adopts a part machine body to fight back against the evil Patriarchy to save the universe.
Ashnikko takes us through the album Track by Track. She gives us a lowdown on the song itself and what she had in mind and what was happening when she wrote it. She also discusses how she includes various Topics in her album including Feminism, Struggle, Environmentalism, Erotica and sexuality. However, she talks about how her mom was not impressed to begin with. But Ashnikko laughs it off and says she knows her mom gets it.
When it comes to the feminist struggle against the Patriarchy, she claims that we haven’t evolved at all. Not when she sees “Beast” of the male gaze being creepy and laughing like Hyenas as they tear womanhood apart.
