The first single to be lifted from the forthcoming EP, Gender Studies is a charged post-punk response to how gender changes throughout our lifetime and scathing look at how some wish to force a gender binary viewpoint. Alongside the latest track comes accompanying video using imagery to suggest the constraints of gender roles and the expectations that come with it.
On the EP, lead vocalist Róisín comments: “Gender studies weaves past & present in an exploration of how the construct of gender shapes our lives. From feeling like you're not performing your gender right to the way it shapes how we move through the physical, sexual & romantic sphere it marries urgent lyrics with a threatening yet (blank) sound."
Released digitally on 29th October debut EP Gender Studies will also be available on 12” vinyl due 14th January via indie label TULLE which champions underrepresented voices in music. The 12” will be a Dinked Edition - a limited edition clear vinyl with 300 copies only. It’ll come with a hand signed postcard from the band, a glittery 'Ghost A Post-Punk Boy Today' sticker, and additional track. Pre-order HERE.
