Yur Mum - SWEATSHOP
If you listened to this week's Just Some Punk Songs show you'll have noticed it was a female vocalist special and it concluded with a new song by Yur Mum. The listeners in the chatroom loved it and to be honest, I don't blame them, it's a banging tune.
They're a multicultural rock band based in London who formed in 2016 and feature a line up of Akos Gado (guitar), Anelise Kunz (vocals/bass) and Fabio Couto (drums). They've released a single, a live ep and an album (Road Rage https://www.flickniferecords.co.uk/store/cds-2/416-yurmum-album). Now they've resurfaced with a new single and it's accompanied with a rather snazzy video. You can get more info on the band here : https://www.facebook.com/rockyurmum/ and here : https://www.yurmum.com/ whilst the single is streaming here : https://yurmum.bandcamp.com/
A rocking critique of the buy anything generation, the Black Friday fake satisfaction, the waste your money on crap you don't need crowd. It's satirically vitriolic and the video is suitably shiny and disposable. This is SWEATSHOP...
Walking past the new Versaces
Clean front doors and royal asses
Sloan straight line of catwalk masses
Showing off to broken classes
It’s time to sweatshop
On a Black Friday
Fake Satisfaction
Easy access to consume
Has made me buy a lot of useless crap
I never needed first place
Now I wanna an upgrade
Calling, calling! The dole dependents
That deep inside do not depend on nothing
Calling, calling! This generation
That’s so selfish they get their heads up their asses
