Radical feminist post hardcore band from the UK & Austria.
Early purchase recommended!
PETROL GIRLS have distilled their feminist politics into an ever more potent cocktail. Fitting, that their logo from day one has been a flaming molotov. Since forming in 2012 the band has been known for playing fast-paced, chaotic punk taking aim at everything from sexual violence to immigration policy - but over their last few years their sound has evolved in a more nuanced direction.
Debut 2016 album 'Talk of Violence' was a blast of pure political rage, while 2019's 'Cut & Stitch' saw vocalist Ren Aldridge exploring familiar themes from a more personal perspective.
Their latest offering 'Baby' has just been released on London label Hassle and sees the band turning another new corner by embracing irreverence. "We wanted [this album] to be less epic and less preachy from day one" Aldridge says. "I hate sanctimoniousness. Like, really fucking hate it. But I also know that I have been mega preachy, and felt very pressured to be sanctimonious, because we've always played in a very political punk scene. I lost my fun side, and I really needed to come back to that".
There'll also be a stall at the gig from GIG BUDDIES
