Cape Town’s filthiest Rock‘n’Roll troublemakers, We Kill Cowboys, are back with a track that bites, bleeds, and refuses to behave. “Cherry Lips” is the band’s first creation as a full five-piece, and it’s a snarling mix of Punk grit, Grunge dirt, and Post-Hardcore venom.

Born from the brain and battle scars of tattoo artist-turned-frontwoman Alex Muller, We Kill Cowboys aren’t here to play nice. Alex has ditched the guitar to unleash her voice at full force – raw, untamed, and impossible to cage. The latest lineup sees long-time ally Floris Le Roux join on second guitar, trading blows with Mornay’s razor-sharp riffs, while Andrew pummels the kit and Miggs drops bass lines thick enough to rattle your teeth loose.
“It’s heavy – the first song we’ve written as a five-piece. It’s about rejecting the idea that anyone needs to save you or mould you into their personal fantasy and refusing to let someone tame your wildness. It’s a feminist song, drawn from personal experience, but the message applies to everyone: don’t be anyone’s bitch – be your own.” – Alex Muller
“Cherry Lips” is taken from their upcoming album “Back From The Dead,” coming soon via Mongrel Records.
This isn’t background music. This is sweaty, stomp-the-stage, scream-until-your-throat-tears stuff. “Cherry Lips” is the sound of a band turning up the volume on their chaos, spitting in the face of conformity, and daring you not to move.
