The Strangerz Release New Single “Shut Up!”

The Strangerz are a self styled alternative, shouty feminist punk band with their own unique spin on gender norms and gender attitudes, their unique high octane sound is one that is a product of the varied influences that each member brings. Priding themselves on their high energy sets and lyrics, which are fun, but also highlight key issues close to their hearts. The band have now released their new single, Shut Up!, that is available via Bandcamp and through all major digital platforms

The band had this to say about the track “A song expressing anger at being spoken over by men who frankly don’t know what they are on about, the scream representing the internal groan all women do when someone starts mansplaining. Its explicit lyrics border on the comedic and ironic side of the misogyny the girls of the band have faced, while driving in that annoyed tone. It’s our heaviest and punkiest song yet, one that became popular when we started gigging in Manchester but one that was hated when we debuted it in our hometown- in fact the first time we played it the promoter told Martha to never scream like that again because it was “funny but not appropriate”.
