including a date at the Anvil in Bournemouth on Thursday 30th September
FREE ENTRY and support from Hunting Hearts and Die IV You
Embracing their entirely unique shitpunk sound, the ferocious single takes aim at homophobic shitheads and fake allies, both worldwide and in their incredibly conservative home country of The Faroe Islands, with cutting lyrics like “You think it’s gross, when two boys kiss. You’re ashamed… of your kids”. Once again, the quartet refuse to miss the target, and continue their ascent which has already seen them receive support from the likes of NME, DIY, DORK, The Line of Best Fit and the legendary Iggy Pop.
Speaking about the single, frontman Joe said: “‘Closeted HomoFObe’ is about people who think they’re allies, but still don’t wanna look at two boys kissing. People who take it upon themselves to protect others from being exposed to the LGBTQ+ community, because they want the public space to remain “neutral”. So it’s not about the Westboro Baptist Church, it’s about your fake woke uncle.”
After being removed from Youtube for being “too pornographic”, the new censored video for “Closeted HomoFObe” is available;
