Alanah:
Braiding each other's hair
Spilling secrets at slumber parties
Kissing on a dare
Trying on each other's clothes
Gals being pals!
Bev:
Will you take my friendship bracelet
and wear it forever, and ever, and ever?
Is she your new best friend?
Do you like her better than me?
I'm gonna hit her in the head!
Gals being pals!
Bethany:
Leaving your husband for a woman
Getting a mortgage, and tying the knot
Getting an allotment together
Growing some veg
Then adopting a child
Gals being pals!
Ciara:
Growing old together
Retiring to France, ah ah
Leaving all your Earthly possessions
To the love of your life, ah ah
Sharing a plot forever with your wife
For the rest of your life: "Gals being pals!"

Junk Drawer lead the pack, swerving into unsettling territory - I love this band's sheer unpredictability. I remember their gig at Output where they followed an excellent set by The Bonk. These guys are the cat's pyjamas! Ursula's Crow
This excellent EP swings from lurching post-hardcore to shadowy dark rock, anchored by a shattering vocal performance. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 20, 2018
Melbourne-based Slush's debut EP is filled with feminist, punky-pop tunes that make for an exciting introduction to their music. Bandcamp New & Notable May 10, 2019
This all-acoustic new LP from the London feminist punk group is just as scrappy, playful, and energetic as their electrified offerings. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 23, 2019
