'Neurotrash' is Feral Five's new release - turbocharged leftfield
beats meet electropunk brainfood in a neon explosion. It features in sizzling drag
queens film ‘Dressed As A Girl’ which
has just premiered at the BFI.
‘Neurotrash’ was inspired by science wars about the brain. Science
guru Susan Greenfield dubbed pap gender psychology 'Neurotrash' and both
she and the legendary Rosalind Franklin are namechecked in the song.
“Peer inside my brain, try to
explain
blame my genes, no desire to please”

Think
Crystal Castles crossed with Crass. Lashings of breakneck beats and screaming
guitar to create leftfield neopunk dubstep.
Raised by wolves on a diet of punk rock, disco and
roots, Kat and Drew Five meld punk attitude and biting lyrics with a dark
lived-in pulsing heart. Feral Five’s debut EP ‘Skin' was dubbed an alternative
classic by Louder Than War, and
Nirvana biographer Everett True
described it as "brooding and deviant”.
The Ferals are Kat - vocals, guitar, percussion, and
Drew - bass, keys, beats. They are obsessed with science, and write songs about
the dark human side of tech, as well as love, lust and madness.
Previous releases ‘Angel Road’ and ‘3D’ were featured
on the Steve Lamacq show on BBC 6 Music. ‘3D’ was the first song
about creating whole humans from a domestic 3D printer -
something will.i.am has since predicted too. With 3D printed artwork
on the vinyl release, it was praised by critics as being “the song of our
times”.
