London feminist performance Art Punks Twat Union have signed to Alcopop! Records and released their new single, Singer Of The Band, that follows on from the debut single UTI. After selling out a string of buzzy gigs before releasing any music and literally several people asking ‘when are you going to put music on the internet then?’, the band have announced that their debut EP, Don’t Look It In The Eye, will be released on the 4th April.

“Our new single is about the assumption that you’re the singer of the band just because you’re a woman. All female musicians will have an experience that they could tell you about where they have been spoken to as if they don’t know how to play their instrument. So we wrote this thrashy anthem for them (and us). Along this theme we’ve made a music video where we use guitar picks as fake nails, a trumpet as a hoover, and a jack lead as a washing line for our tiny pants. Because that’s all we could possibly do with instruments, right?!”

The band will be celebrating the EP release at one of their increasingly notorious live performances on the 5th April at London’s The Lexington that promises to be a chaotic punk experience unlike any other. There will be props, there will be line dancing, there will be shouting, there may even be a raffle (if you’re lucky). Spring UK tour dates will follow with festival appearances at Bearded Theory and Rebellion Festival already confirmed for this summer.
