Iona Zajac – Dilute

Iona Zajac announces debut album Bang out 21st November anticipated by the single ‘Dilute.’

Zajac shared a further glimpse into Bang with the release of “Dilute”, one of the record’s most striking and surreal centrepieces. Anchored by an off-kilter intensity, the track channels the disorienting logic of dreams, where anger and empowerment blur into something raw and otherworldly. If “Anton” revealed the bruised honesty of her songwriting, “Dilute” embodies its feral, unrestrained power, a song that transforms fury into liberation.

Speaking on the track, Zajac says: “Dilute is the anchor of my first album, Bang. I sort of see the song as one of my weird dreams that I’m forcing into reality. Why can’t we run around with red faces, screaming at men who’ve wronged us? I see no issue. I see myself as a feral, strong woman in this song, and I want it to be one for women to find their anger and turn it into power and then one day maybe we can all meet up in a forest painted red and run through it holding hands screaming. Rise together from the warm black oil we’ve been dunked in! After I wrote the song my mum went to an exhibition and found Judy Chicago ‘Woman and Red Flares.’ I think she nailed it.”
