“I don’t need your boys club, I’ll do just fine on my own”, snarls Juliana Viana on “Boys Club”, a new track from inspiring hardcore punk band Haircut.
The four-piece, formerly from Charlottesville but now based in the Virginia capital, Richmond, are an outspoken and speedy outfit that play with a stinging fury. Led by Viana’s fierce vocals, in the past the band have written songs that address issues of consent, exploited labour and patriotism.

Following a couple of demos they are set to release Shutting Down, a new five-track EP that will be available later this year through the great Richmond label Feel It. Feel It are donating 20% of sales from their catalogue through the end of August to those injured ini the Neo-nazi attacks that took place in Charlottesville on August 12.
From Charlottesville to Sydney and London, aggressive and confronting punk rock is as important now than it has ever been.
