Dream Nails have released their new single Kiss My Fist, taken from their recently released self-titled debut album.
Speaking about the track guitarist Anya Pearson explains: “As a queer woman, I live in fear of violence every day because of my sexuality and the way I look. In the UK anti-LGBT hate crime has surged in the past five years, and the risk of violence disproportionately increases for queer and trans people of colour. According to Stonewall, 1 in 3 queer people of colour have experienced hate crime in the past year.”
Pearson continues: “We wrote Kiss My Fist in honour of all queer people trying to get from A to B without getting beaten up. Our message to homophobes and transphobes is clear: ask us to kiss again, and we will eat your brain!”
The music video, which you can watch below, is a celebration of queer woman – directed by Guen Murroni, it features some of the UK’s best roller-skaters performing tricks whilst the band perform inside a skate bowl.
Earlier this month Dream Nails performed their first Dream Nails House Party livestream show. The follow-up event, Dream Nails House Party: Encore, is set to take place on 24th September 2020 at 8pm EST/1AM BST. Keep your eyes peeled for more live stream events including the Feministmas date for later this year!
