New York punk/post punk band Cumgirl8 have unveiled their new single “Cursed Angel” alongside an accompanying video.
The track features on their new EP ‘phantasea pharm‘, out this Friday, 18 August through 4AD. Pre-order your copy here.
‘cursed angel’ is a whimsical dance with insanity, with repeating hook, “I feel like I’m losing my mind.” Speaking on the song, cumgirl8 says: ‘‘’cursed angel’ is about feeling like you’re slipping out of reality; it’s uncontrollable and sometimes you can’t contain it. If you don’t fight it, the outcome can be positive.“
Watch the Peter Kaaden-directed video below.
The single also arrives ahead of their headlining show in New York City tomorrow where they’ll be playing the grand opening of Baker Falls (formerly The Pyramid Club). Grab tickets here.
This will be the band’s first headlining show in the States following their support slots with Le Tigre and their EU/UK tour earlier this summer where they played Primavera, The Great Escape, London Calling, and more. cumgirl8 will then make their return overseas later this Summer joining the line-up for Green Man, Core Festival, and Pitchfork Paris.
