TOKKY HORROR have shared a video for their new single TOILET, taken from their forthcoming EP KAPPACORE.
“TOILET is a heartbreak song about falling out of love with a scene. I grew up feeling like a punk scene, or a DIY scene, or an activist scene would be this perfect space of inclusivity. Somewhere where we’ll all be welcome and motivated to actively bring around the change we talk about,” says the band. “That perspective is probably a little naive, and with time we’ve grown to see we should be creating new scenes and new spaces. Inspired by the energy those original movements but being the changes we feel they need. I always felt more at home in a punk club than a “gay bar”, that doesn’t mean those spaces are “wrong” it just means there is a sub-culture of people who don’t have a space. So here with Tokky, we want to create one.”
KAPPACORE is set for release on 12th May 2023 via Venn Records and is available to pre-order HERE.
