WENCH!'s debut single, Shreds, is a visceral and unapologetic entry into the riot grrrl punk scene.
The track captures raw emotion and fury, channeling the anger and disillusionment of toxic relationships. With gritty production by Adam Pattrick, it maintains a fierce DIY spirit, combining searing guitar riffs, pounding drums, and cathartic screams to create an anthem that empowers listeners to face their struggles head-on.
Lyrically, Shreds tackles vulnerability and the courage to express oneself despite societal pressures to stay subdued. The band describes it as a declaration against intimidation and silence, offering a voice to those who feel unseen in challenging situations. This approach resonates with both its punk ethos and its emotionally charged themes.
Critics have praised the song for its balance of ferocity and depth. It’s a mosh-ready banger, yet its reflective undertones give listeners plenty to unpack. The band’s debut sets a bold tone for their career, showcasing a commitment to both unfiltered expression and cultural critique
Shreds combines rage, rebellion, and a touch of introspection. It’s a powerful debut that hints at even greater potential from this rising trio.
