Cumgirl8 Explained

Cumgirl8 is an American post-punk band and multi-media collective based in Manhattan, New York, founded in 2019 by Lida Fox, Veronika Vilim, Avishag Cohen Rodrigues, and Chase Lombardo (also known as Chase Noelle).[1] Describing themselves as a "sex-positive alien amoeba entity," they create work in the fields of music, film, publishing, and fashion.[2] Their music functions as an "outlet [for] repressed and pent-up emotions" and their style and artistic practice are shaped by an opposition to patriarchy and capitalism.[3] [4] They began playing their first shows and releasing songs in the months before the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic, and once in quarantine they created The 1-900, a low-fi, unfiltered talk show on YouTube that delves into sociopolitical issues with guests appearing over webcam.[5] They are currently signed to prominent independent label 4AD since 2023 and released the EP phantasea pharm that August.[6]
