Band: VENUS GRRRLS
Who: Female indie hit team
from Leeds, UK.

New single: DIVINE

Grace Kelly: “It’s about the female gaze; the unsaid, but the known. It narrates the earlier stages of a relationship which is shrouded in mystery, making for an addictive and all-consuming sentimentality.”

TUTV: These adrenalised Amazons made my ears tremble for the first time in 2021 with their powerhouse EP Potions. Several singles followed and now we can let off steam with their first one of 2024.

A fierce bass/drum tandem pushes this projectile’s pace with vivid vigor and zappy zeal, from start to finish. Flaming guitars cause pyrotechnics and Grace Kelly‘s vocals cut like a Swiss knife on the trashy chorus. Combine all these roasting ingredients and we end up with a sinewy slice of barbed wire pop blitz. Wowzers.

Posted on by JL

28 March 2021

Band: VENUS GRRRLS – newest single

Track: GOTH GIRL

About: The song “begins painting a picture of two friends hanging out, who eventually
realise their struggles for their choice of clothes and makeup… It made us also thinking
about how fickle society is, and how it’s always ready to point the finger at something new.
Goth Girl clings to all of these notions, and most definitely is an ode to our younger selves.”

Score: This 21st Century Bikini Kill team generates an overwhelming energy that immediately drags you into its furious development. And I’m sure this raging ripper
could trigger early Sioux Sioux memories of the moment she decided to become a
Goth Queen. She inspired and still inspires young girls all around the globe to do
what they wanna do and be who they wanna be.

Venus Grrrls also have that irreversible determination, that don’t -mess-with-me attitude,
that sassy swagger and a phenomenal vocal force to make you hear loud and clear who and what they wanted to be. Riot girl power all the way.

But I wanna be a goth girl,
and I was never popular
I’m satan’s sister on the ground
I wanna be a, I wanna be a,
I wanna be a goth girl

Feel the heat here.
