The South London duo Punchbag has announced their debut EP titled ‘I’m Not Your Punchbag’.
This sibling pair merges extensive pop sounds with a quirky sense of humor, all supported by strong DIY principles. Recently signed to Mute, Punchbag is swiftly making strides by releasing singles, announcing tour dates, and more.
Their upcoming EP – a significant milestone – ‘I’m Not Your Punchbag’ will be released on May 2nd, showcasing the duo's journey in learning to establish their limits.
With sharp humor, the EP represents their strong sense of individuality. “It originated from a seemingly ‘harmless’ comment made at a dinner table that really affected me,” Clara explains. “From that small incident, if you will, the song evolved into an anthem about standing up for oneself – a declaration against letting others impose their issues on you.”
The EP and its title track not only inspired the band's name, but they also reflect their core values. The newly released single ‘I’m Not Your Punchbag’ is a bold piece of hyper-pop that defies conventions.
“This song clarifies our band name and philosophy,” Clara adds. “It's something to shout along to; a perfect form of therapy. ‘Don’t take it out on me, bitch!’”
