Toothless Hags channel generational memory and restless emotion into 20th Century, a dynamic indie rock cut that feels both intimate and unhinged in the best way. Drawing inspiration from the film 20th Century Women, the song reflects on grandmotherhood and womanhood with raw affection, moving through shifting moods and textures before erupting into a wild, cathartic ending. There’s a sense of time folding in on itself here, personal history colliding with present tension, as guitars swell, loosen, and finally burn out.
20th Century feels like one being remembered in real time, messy, emotional, and alive.
