YAKKIE are a punk supergroup from London who are fronted by Janey Starling who you may remember was the vocalist for Dream Nails and who guested on a few tracks on the Petrol Girls album, Baby. Also in the band are Robin Gatt (Personal Best & Petrol Girls) on guitar & vocals, Laura Ankles (Colour Me Wednesday) on bass & vocals and Maeve Westall (Itoldyouiwouldeatyou) on drums. 
  They've a debut album pencilled in for next February and to give us a taste of what to expect they've just released the title track. https://yakkie.bandcamp.com/track/kill-the-cop-inside-your-head
  It's a song about breaking out of the prison that is your mind and striving for a better future. It's called Kill The Cop Inside Your Head...
KILL THE COP INSIDE YOUR HEAD!
DON’T LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID!
BURN DOWN THE PANOPTICON
YOUR MIND IS A PRISON
ARM THE DREAMERS
TEAR APART THE SEAMS AND
RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN
YOUR IMAGINATION IS THE DOOR TO YOUR LIBERATION
YOUR MIND IS NOT A COMMODITY
REJECT ‘SCARCITY’ / REJECT ‘PRACTICAL’ / REJECT ‘REASONABLE’
OUR HOPE IS A MUSCLE. IS AN AXE. IS A TONIC.
THAT WE HAVE TO USE EVERY SINGLE DAY
AS WIDEMAN WARNED US:
“DO NOT FALL ASLEEP
IN YOUR ENEMY’S DREAM”
DON’T LISTEN TO WHAT HE SAID!
BURN DOWN THE PANOPTICON
YOUR MIND IS A PRISON
ARM THE DREAMERS
TEAR APART THE SEAMS AND
RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN
YOUR IMAGINATION IS THE DOOR TO YOUR LIBERATION
YOUR MIND IS NOT A COMMODITY
REJECT ‘SCARCITY’ / REJECT ‘PRACTICAL’ / REJECT ‘REASONABLE’
OUR HOPE IS A MUSCLE. IS AN AXE. IS A TONIC.
THAT WE HAVE TO USE EVERY SINGLE DAY
AS WIDEMAN WARNED US:
“DO NOT FALL ASLEEP
IN YOUR ENEMY’S DREAM”
