Dream Nails - Kiss My Fist

  London's Dream Nails (https://www.facebook.com/yourdreamnails/) were planning to release their debut album next month but unfortunately due to the current Corona Virus outbreak it's (and the tour in support of it) been put back till September. To whet our appetites, they've been drip feeding us a series of singles and it's the latest one that I'm featuring today...

  Described by i-D magazine as the best DIY all-girl punk queertet since Bikini Kill, the band don't hold back with their views on feminism, homophobia and even getting women to the front at their gigs. They're a serious band with serious concerns but they're not afraid to have fun too. They're fresh, energetic and have been picking up plenty of rave reviews and mainstream airplay.

  This single was written following the attack, on a London bus, of Melania Geymonat and Christine Hannigan by a group of young men. It asks the question, what makes so many misogynistic guys hate what they most desire? (The most popular searched term on online porn sites in 2019 was "Lesbian"). No one deserves to live in fear.

  It's called Kiss My Fist...

You like us on the video
You like us when you have control
You want an onscreen fantasy
But you hate us holding hands in the street

Do you want us on your screen
Do you want to hear us scream x4

Kiss my Fist
Kiss my Fist
You fear queers
but you can't resist x2

I've seen your search history
Bleep bleep
House of dreams
bleep bleep
Then you throw stones in the streets

Do you want us on your screen
Do you want to hear us scream x4

Kiss my Fist
Kiss my Fist
You fear queers
but you can't resist x2

Do you want us on your screen
Do you want to hear us scream x2

Ask us to kiss again x7

We're gonna eat your brains!

Kiss my Fist
Kiss my Fist
You fear queers
but you can't resist x2

You fear us more than we fear you x8

Dream Nails - Vagina Police

  When London feminist punk witches Dream Nails recently released their new single I was going to feature it on here but hung on hoping they'd put flip side Fascism Is Coming (Get Out Of Bed) on Youtube so I could share it with you guys. After waiting a while I decided to ask if I could stick it on Youtube myself, unfortunately they said no. There is however a video already on there for the other song on the single so even though many of you will already have seen it, that's what you're getting today. For Fascism Is Coming you'll have to visit Bandcamp : https://dreamnails.bandcamp.com/album/vagina-police-fascism-is-coming-get-out-of-bed-double-a-side

  All proceeds from the single (as well as the digital release it's also out on red vinyl) will go to Abortion Support Network (ASN) so not only do you get 2 great songs, a good cause benefits too. The band will be playing plenty of gigs over the next few months and you can get details on Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/yourdreamnails/

   Railing against those who feel that women shouldn't have control over their own bodies, this is Vagina Police....

Your body is not your own 
You have no autonomy 
Your body is not your own 
You are public property 


Your body is not your own 
You have no autonomy 
Your body is not your own 
You are public property 

From the first drop of blood 
They already want to split us open 
For the world to dip into 

They want to know 
What comes in 
What goes out 
What it looks like 
Whether you have one 


Your body is not your own 
You have no autonomy 
Your body is not your own 
You are public property 

Your body is not your own 
You have no autonomy 
Your body is not your own 
You are public property 

V-A-G-I-N-A P-O-L-I-C-E

Dream Nails - Deep Heat

 

  "Nobody cares if your dick is on fire..."

   If you check out their Facebook page...(https://www.facebook.com/yourdreamnails/) you'll discover that London band Dream Nails are "Queer feminist punk witches ready to hex you." I can safely say that after listening to their debut ep these 4 enchantresses certainly have me under their spell.

  Described as being like The Ramones meets Bikini Kill, it's no surprise that their music is up tempo, fun punk that seethes with a strong undercurrent of swirling anger. They've got something to say but they aren't going to be all po faced and self righteous about it when they can get their message across just as forcefully whilst having a good time.

  These sisters (Janey, Lucy, Anya and Emmett) are definitely doing it for themselves as you'll hear if you check out their wonderful DIY ep......   https://dreamnails.bandcamp.com/album/diy

  I played the title track on last week's Just Some Punk Songs show (http://mixlr.com/just-some-punk-songs/showreel/just-some-punk-songs-190202/) so today I'll go with the song that they released a video for a couple of months ago. It's also going to be the lead track on a compilation album called Loud Women Volume 1. All profits from the comp will go to Women's Aid (https://www.facebook.com/womensaid/) and you can pre order it here : https://loudwomen.org/2017/01/26/loud-women-volume-one-compilation-cd-available-to-pre-order-now/.

  There's a second ep coming soon but in the meantime, this is Deep Heat....
