NNA Tapes is very excited to welcome Boston, Massachusetts-based Birthing Hips to the family. Over the last decade, Boston has proved itself to be a creative melting pot for a new wave of uniquely deranged rock bands. The city's rich history of punk, combined with it's strong DIY culture, plus it's local concentration of formal music schools have merged together in a bubbling stew, yielding an abundance of highly talented, energetic, and unruly new acts. At the forefront of this new crop is Birthing Hips, a noisy four-piece known for their virtuosic players and intense live performances. Following up their 2016 self-released debut 'No Sorry,' their latest release 'Urge To Merge' continues their ruthless trajectory into more aggressive, yet more refined, territory. The lyrical themes on 'Urge To Merge'range from menacing to sarcastic to existential, reflective of a person pushed to their boiling point in the face of social bullshit and modern injustice. Birthing Hips' juxtaposition of female vocals with blistering noise rock suggests notions of traditional femininity being smashed to pieces, like glitter being sprayed out of a can of mace. Buried within these songs' bestial exterior, however, is an underlying melodic core of pop, showing an informed understanding and appreciation of all types of music from it's creators. 1.
