Lambrini Girls have teamed up with Music Declares Emergency for the ‘Hot Girls F*ck The System’ merch line.
The Brighton punk duo have helped create the range of t-shirts, hoodies, joggers and caps alongside the charity, with all profits to be donated to help support action in the face of the climate emergency.
Music Declares Emergency are preparing to launch their ‘No Music On A Dead Planet’ action hubs around the UK, which will bring the charity’s representatives into towns and cities to “supercharge climate action” and “create communities of real change on the ground”.
The items carry two eye-catching slogans: “Saving the Planet is C*nty” and “Hot Girls F*ck The System” and the items are available to browse and purchase now – check them out on Music Declares Emergency’s site here.
Lambrini Girls singer Phoebe Lunny has said: “We’re in a climate emergency and the world’s on fire. Mobilising is more important now than it has ever been and we need to put pressure on those guilty of destroying the planet.”
Music Declares Emergency CEO Lewis Jamieson added: “Our founding principle is that music can change the world. When a band like Lambrini Girls put themselves out there to their fans to support our work and their fans respond, we are literally showing how music can build communities and those communities can act together to create change.”
Last year, the charity launched another merch range ‘Hope Over Fear’, in collaboration with IDLES, Yard Act, Enter Shikari, Maisie Peters, jasmine 4.t and many more artists.
Savages drummer and Music Declares Emergency co-founder Fay Milton also previously spoke out about the need for the industry as a whole to change its habits to help beat climate change.
‘No Music On A Dead Planet’ has been and Foals as well as having shirts designed by Thom Yorke, Joy Division artist Peter Saville and others.
As for Lambrini Girls, they pulled out of Coachella and rescheduled their North American tour earlier this year after Lunny sustained a neck fracture and an “acute brain injury” while tour in Australia. See the rescheduled dates here and find any remaining tickets here.
The duo shared a tongue-in-cheek new single called ‘Cult Of Celebrity’ at the start of the year, which saw them take aim at the corruption among the elite.
That followed on from them sharing their debut album ‘Who Let The Dogs Out‘ last year. NME praised that record in a five-star review, writing: “With ‘Who Let The Dogs Out’, Lambrini Girls prove punk is alive and kicking. They’re unapologetically amplifying chaos, calling out societal wrongs, and daring us all to feel something. This record is loud, raw, and impossible to ignore.”
