The only thing badder (in the pejorative sense) than cumgirl8's frantic post-punk is their wicked sense of humour - something that's clear for all to see on new single 'Karma Police'. Turning tired ideas on their heads, the track opens with a mission statement blasted through a synthesized robot effect, before launching into a feral new-wave bop. Arriving alongside the announcement of their debut album, the 8th cumming (out October 4th on 4AD), the no holds barred offering comes dedicated to: “Anyone who’s been deemed ‘unnatural’ in the face of reigning biological norms, anyone who’s experienced injustices wrought in the name of natural order, will realize that the glorification of ‘nature’ has nothing to offer us–the queer and trans among us, the differently-abled, as well as those who have suffered discrimination due to pregnancy or duties connected to child-rearing. … In the name of feminism, ‘Nature’ shall no longer be a refuge of injustice, or a basis for any political justification whatsoever!” Listen here now. -Holly Mullineaux
