Feral as Everr by BANGZZ

Lyrics:

Hot hot sweat it's
Dripping off my teeth
Its dripping off of me
I’m a wild thing!

Dirt underneath my
Hard bare feet
On my fingernails and meat
I’m a live thing!

So much for social conditioning
The girls are all awake now
We are shedding decency
To become something dangerous

We are born again
Feral as Everr
You can’t take myself from me
You can’t control me anymore!

Hot air in my breath
Hot blood in my chest
Hot thoughts in my head
I’m becoming

Where my bones meet
There is electricity and
I’m the storm that's brewing

So they try to trap me
Like a prey to poacher
But they forget that I’m
also an apex predator

Let the games begin
Your reign is over
I also have fangs
I also remember

Hot hot sweat its
Dripping off my teeth
Its dripping off of me
I’m a wild thing!

Dirt underneath my
Hard bare feet
On my fingernails and meat
I’m a live thing!

Hot air in my breath
Hot blood in my chest
Hot thoughts in my head
I’m becoming!

Where my bones meet
There is electricity and
I’m the storm that's brewing

So much for social conditioning
The girls are all awake now
We are shedding decency
To become something dangerous

We are born again
Feral as Everr
You can’t take myself from me
You can’t destroy me anymore!

Let the games begin
Your reign is over
I also have fangs
I also remember

Hell Is Other People

Somewhere between punk and catharsis.
 
BANGZZʼ sound has been described as “confrontational femme-punk that weds a Stooges stomp to five-alarm-blaze-yelps” and a “brand of punk noir” that is “all scuzzy irreverent riot girl catharsis.” Their first full length album "You Took My Body Long Ago and Now I am Taking it Back" released on North Carolina label, Potluck Foundation, was hailed by INDY Week as “one of the most exciting full-length Triangle debuts to emerge out of the muck of 2021.” 

Barreling out of the lull of the pandemic, the band was featured on NPR Live Sessions and began to turn heads with campy music videos they made in support of their album. Kathleen Hanna of Bikini Kill discovered the bandʼs ramen-encrusted music video for their single, “Hell is Other People” and shared it on social media with the comment “Thank You” and said of the duo, “This is the future and now colliding!” 

Now BANGZZ has recorded a nine track sophomore album that comes packed with another round of snarky punk punches while also digging deeper into a sludgy 90s grunge that gives a headbanging nod to Nirvana and PJ Harvey in the same breath, while still including irresistible pop numbers with a retro-radio charm, and an undeniable cowbell driven, dance-punk, track about bodily autonomy that is guaranteed to have crowds shaking.  

The new album is playfully titled, “Maybe She's Born with It, Maybe It’s a Trauma Response.” Song themes include finding your true authentic self, dissociation and depression, reproductive rights, generational trauma, self worth, abusive relationships, and unlearning all the ways you were taught to shrink yourself. For Kobayashi Libero, these songs are born from a place of self discovery and healing. It’s a release of all the quiet, unspoken truths, now screamed. It’s the ripping off of a patriarchal “good girl” mask and howling at the moon, while inviting all who hear it, to do the same.
