Dream Nails have released ‘This Is The Summer’ taken from their self-titled debut album which is set for release August 28th via Alcopop! Records.
Singer Janey Starling says of the song:
“‘This Is The Summer’ is a song about how our climate is breaking down irreversibly. Colonial capitalism, waged by UK governments and corporations for centuries, has ravaged our earth. We need to be urgently fighting for migrant rights so the UK welcomes climate refugees displaced by countries hit by extreme weather. We must demand transparency from oil companies who relentlessly put profit before people, even as the world burns.”
Guitarist Anya Pearson adds:
“We wrote ‘This Is The Summer’ in the heatwave of 2018, recorded it in another heatwave in 2019 and now we are releasing it in yet another heatwave! Our video for the track shows how the current pandemic, white supremacy and climate change are not separate issues but interlinked. The song is about the brazen complacency of getting drunk and catching a tan in the park while the world burns.”
To celebrate their debut album in the absence of any real live gigs, Dream Nails will be bringing their live show to living rooms on Saturday September 5th.
Pearson explains:
“We all miss playing live gigs, so we decided to bring Dream Nails’ riotous live shows straight to your living room! After months of lockdown, our fans are yearning for that authentic punk show experience, so we’ll send out a ‘Gig in a Box’ with all the kit you need to recreate a gig at home! As well as exclusive merch and other goodies, we’ve even consulted a surface designer to create a square of sticky venue flooring for you to stand on – how immersive is that?! See you in the pit!”
