Song: Typhoid Rosie - Defend Your Temple
Brooklyn punk rockers, Typhoid Rosie released “Defend Your Temple”, a new single off their upcoming album, Queen Of Swords, which will be out August 13th!
"Defend Your Temple" is an empowering feminist anthem and an urgent plea to stop seeking validation outside of ourselves.
"I would never sit a little girl down in front of a glowing screen to watch Cinderella,” says frontwoman, Rosie Rebel. It’s not that I don’t believe in a good love story, it’s just the fact that generations of women have grown up with this idea that if we play dress up that some magical prince will come and save us. It’s a sham fairy tale about a girl who cries and waits for other people to come and save her - the mice, a fairy godmother, and finally a prince. She’s afraid that the prince won’t love her because she doesn’t have the right clothes. How is this any different than the plot of Pretty Woman?“
Queen Of Swords was recorded remotely at home in quarantine during COVID-19 (with the exception of drums and bass, recorded at Cannon Found Soundation in Brooklyn). The album is available for pre-order NOW!
