Robin Webb discovers a joyous album of energetic punk from Dream Nails
Alcopop! Records
Released: 28.08.20
Dream Nails are a frenetic four-piece, witches and full time riot grrrls, full of energetic pop positivity in their own inimitable driving DIY punk spirit. They’ve spent most of the past year refining this studio-based production following on from their acoustic live album Take Up Space!
Several of those tracks make a welcome return here in ‘full fat’ buzzed electricity, stand outs among those are Text Me Back (Chirpse Degree Burns) and the glorious personal trainer love song from afar, Jillian. As a whole this album is full of their trademark anger and political nous, counterbalanced by an unbounded joy and humour in order to heal and, like their audience, grow. If you don’t partake then look out: they’re “gonna hex you up”!
