Daily noise that works faster than a stream of caffeine

New York‘s all-female, headstrong indie team CUMGIRL8, who called themselves once
a “sex-positive alien amoeba entity“, shared big news for all of their fans. Their debut LP, titled THE 8TH CUMMING, is recorded and ready to be released on October 4 via 4AD.

Press info: “Described as a utopian, chaotic ‘Greta Thunberg fever dream,’ the 8th cumming (recorded live, entirely on analog) is rooted in a philosophy close to the band’s heart: cyberfeminism, which addresses the relationship between human and machine, nature and technology. Within this context, the record aims to examine our relationships with the online and physical world from an apocalyptic vantage point, even down to its artwork in which the band adorns slime-covered futuristic garments in a muted, murky landscape, representative of an inevitable ‘post-reality’ consisting of our deteriorating natural ecosystem and the dissolution of consciousness at the helm of artificial intelligence.”

First single KARMA POLICE (no, not a cover of the famous Radiohead song) is a breakneck synth/guitar propelled spear. No brakes. No breaks. The strong-willed and sharp-teethed Amazons are on a rambunctious roll.

Unstoppable.
