The Menstrual Cramps release new song ‘Class War’
THE MENSTRUAL CRAMPS have released a brand new song!
The new song, titled Class War, is the brand new single from the Bristol-based punk band and follows on from their previous single, Abortion, which was released back in January.
Speaking about the new song, vocalist Emilia Elfrida says, “Class War is about the importance of joining a union and holding your workplace and peers to account. Workers rights are being taken away from us at an alarming rate, and the best way to combat this is with collective bargaining and activism. It also comments on unions largely being controlled by old white men, and the push needed to move away from this. Women’s rights are workers rights. Always support strikers, and never cross a picket line!”

In celebration of the new single the band have partnered up with Manchester-based, DIY, vegan friendly, nano-brewery Courier Brewing Company for the release of their own beer. The beer is a session pale ale, bright and piney with hints of orange peel, an assertive bitterness, and a dry refreshing finish.
The beer is being sold directly to suppliers/venues, who can purchase it through sellar.io and is also raising money for charity, with 50p per pint for every keg sold being donated to akt. akt helps LGBTQ+ young people find safety and security, by providing pathways into safe housing, access to social support and assisting with routes into training and employment.
