ratbag has announced a new EP inspired by the love and horror of womanhood

ratbag has announced a new EP titled ‘kissing under an (almost) full moon’, set for release on 9th May via Mischief Records.

The four-track collection follows a series of singles and explores themes of womanhood through contrasting perspectives. The EP features previously released tracks ‘look what you’re doing to me’ and ‘juliet & juliet’, alongside new songs ‘lose her’ and ‘king of kingston’.

“In the last year i’ve started to really feel the growing pains of becoming a woman – of moulding into myself and my sexuality – and falling in love. it’s liberating, but at the same time i’m feeling the world around me becoming more and more terrifying. this EP is about both those things – the love of womanhood and the horrors too,” ratbag explains.

“i’m finding that being a woman is simultaneously beautiful, sexy and dangerous so i wanted to make 4 tracks that don’t just dance around these concepts, but instead, cut straight through them. the divide of the EP is a slap in the face between the softness and peace of being a woman and the unfortunate reality that i’ve been slowly growing into.”
