Mannequin Pussy share new single ‘Perfect’

With their new EP ‘Perfect’ arriving on 21st May, Philadelphia indie punk band Mannequin Pussy are sharing the title track today.

“Last year, I found myself spending more time on my phone than I ever had in my life. Physically separate from other people, I spent hours of time watching other humans perform on my rectangle. I realized that through years of social media training, many of us have grown this deep desire to manicure our lives to look as perfect, as aspirational as possible,” explains the band’s vocalist/guitarist Missy. “We want to put ourselves out there, share our lives, our stories, our day to day - and these images and videos all shout the same thing: ‘Please look at me, please tell me I’m so perfect.’ It’s simultaneously a declaration of our confidence but edged with the desperation that seeks validation from others.”

Accompanied by a new vid inspired by the 1997 film Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion, check it out below.
