WRITTEN BY  LOU WATSON

90’s-grunge- inspired alt-rock trio Wife Patrol released their debut album “Too Prickly For This World.” Receiving streams from all across the world, this band has made themselves notable. From being featured on AFROPUNK, to earning a slot on bandcamp’s shortlist of all time best selling alt-rock. This LP hits all aspects of the rock genre spectrum. They get in touch with traditional metal with the beginning of the track “Why Do I Keep Doing This To Myself?”, eases their way into more classic punk like The Ramones with their song “Lets Hang Out”, and of course taps into grunge with their tracks “Spyro” and “Your Mother” If you want to support more contemporary bands who get in touch with their rock roots, this band should be on your list.
“Too Prickly For This World is the culmination of our inception and growth over the past five years,” the band says. “Recording and capturing these songs has brought us a lot of happiness and connectedness during difficult times. And now, the songs seem more relevant than ever.”
Along with the release of their album, they also released an ominous and eldritch music video for their track “Your Mother.” Though spooky, it oddly fits the feeling of the track. “Your Mother” emits strong Alice in Chains vibes with a subtle cross-over of The Runaways. The layered vocals of Nicole and Natasha work so well cohesively, making it seem like a witchy hymn, and relative to the vocals of Cherie and Joan. Especially with the addition of the dark occult lyrics such as “Cut down the vine, magic in a bottle” and “White night, black fog, Tooth of wild dog”

The music video to this track consists of grainy old black and white clips from old silent horror films. If I hadn’t known any better I’d think that they had been filmed explicitly for this track. In the video there’s scenes that involve zombies, Frankenstein, vampires, bats, werewolves and to wrap it up, man’s worst nightmare: some fierce women kicking ass. This piece came right in time, fitting perfectly into the Halloween spirit.

"TOO PRICKLY FOR THIS WORLD" IS NOW AVAILABLE TO STREAM
