Glitoris. Four fearless female musicians who’ve gained a national reputation for their unforgettable punk rock shows released their long-awaited debut album: THE POLICY last month and today, release the video for title track;
“‘The video captures everything ‘The Policy’ is about: women and minorities having to work much, much harder just to be perceived as competent relative to their male peers. ’The Policy’ video is about breaking free from societal norms and expectations and working hard to achieve what you want in life. We included snapshots of some of some amazing female leaders for inspiration!”
Equal parts anthemic, ferocious, political yet absurd, the Canberra four-piece have delivered a modern-day punk classic. THE POLICY traverses the band’s broad musicianship from soaring orchestral rock through driving metal power riffs, classic punk spats, stunning four-part-harmony-laden classic rock bangers and even theatrical cabaret!
Lyrically, THE POLICY leaves no political stones unturned; the band express their unapologetic feminist rage against a backdrop of ludicrous scenarios all the while critiquing Western political apathy. Defiant, comedic, visceral and, ultimately, empowering: THIS IS THE GLITORIS POLICY.
Recorded at Sydney’s Pet Food Factory studios with Jay Whalley (Frenzal Rhomb), mixed by Clem Bennett and mastered by Mandy Parnell (Bjork, The XX), THE POLICY is out now via Buttercup Records/MGM Distribution through all major digital outlets, as well as on CD and 12” Vinyl.
