  • Sounds Like

    "Drunken Butterfly sound like Kleenex through the dark glass of laudanum and Lewis Carroll. The demos have a spectral DIY quality; like a lost band that only ever existed on hand-distributed cassettes in 1982; they have that kind of aura of a cool secret. Fantastic." .. -James Reich, Venus Bogardus "Drunken Butterfly’s two chord drone evokes Death Valley 69 era Sonic Youth with vocals that alternate between blank eyed Kim Gordon and the whisper SHOUT whisper of Poly Styrene. The break out the ballads rickety Raincoats style later and charm the pants off many." - Surface Unsigned

Sounds Like:

Bristol riot grrrl inspired 3-piece who take their name from the Sonic Youth song. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Kim Gordon, Babes In Toyland, PJ Harvey and Patti Smith, they combine guitar, bass and drums with ukulele and melodica to create a fusion of snarly fuzzy punk rock and acoustic folk pop.
