Dream Nails announce self-titled debut album

DREAM NAILS have announced their debut album!

The upcoming album, a self-titled effort, from the London punk witches is scheduled to be released in April this year. The record has a strong emphasis on empowerment and railing against society’s injustices, especially from a queer feminist perspective. It’s an intoxicating and rallying kaleidoscope of righteous rage, tongue-in-cheek commentary on modern constructs and pure riotous fun.

Alongside the announcement of the debut album, the band have released a new music video for a song lifted from the upcoming record; titled Text Me Back (Chirpse Degree Burns). Speaking about the new song, vocalist Janey Starling says, “for those born beyond the M25, ‘chirpse’ is London slang for flirting and ‘chirpse degree burns’ is our personal slang for the injuries borne from romantic misadventure. The song is a tribute to the gut-wrenching feeling of checking your phone every five minutes to see if your crush has replied.” Drummer Lucy Katz adds, “the song started as a joke after a fateful Glastonbury where a couple of band members (who shall forever remain unnamed…) got ghosted by their festival crushes.”
