Isn't the name "Screaming Females" sorta redundant? Unless you are talking about Helen Keller obvs. [Editors Note] This post was written by our new intern Todd, he is majoring in gender equality. That is apparently backfiring. I would just delete it but then I would have to write something myself and then what would be the point of having an intern? Also you should know that he is the only one that applied for the job posting so I took what I could get?

Video: Screaming Females - "Poison Arrow" Screaming Females presentaron el video de " Poison Arrow ". Lo que comienza como algo aburrido con una temática de Halloween, se convierte en al sutilmente siniestro. El clip fue dirigido por Kate Sweeney . Chécalo a continuación. " Poison Arrow " pertenece al nuevo EP de la banda, Chalk Tape . Radioalterno.Com "Radio Independiente de Rock & Roll"

Screaming Females get crafty in their new video for "Poison Arrow" - literally. What starts out like a boring Halloween-themed arts and crafts party circa 1988 quickly turns into something subtly sinister. Director Kate Sweeney has seen far too many episodes of Kids in the Hall , namely because everyone's in drag and there's this subversive element that's both funny and eerie. If it's too much, just grab some construction paper, fetch a jar of both glitter and glue, and keep your head down with your eyes never leaving those scissors . Okay? Watch below. [...]

Earlier this month, the great Jersey punk trio Screaming Females released Chalk Tape , a cassette-only EP that follows the insanely great 2012 album Ugly . " Poison Arrow ," a jittery burner from the tape, now has a video from director Kate Sweeney, and it tells the story of a crossdressing trio of amateur artists willing to go to nefarious lengths to keep anyone else from winning their Scremales-themed art fair. From the ridiculous concept to the inexplicably gendered stars to the '70s-style film grain, it's all just a very strange homemade delight. [...]

[photo by Rafe Baron courtesy of Impose Magazine ] I felt a palpable sense of relief to see Marissa Pasternoster on stage performing with Screaming Females on Saturday night at the Don Giovanni Records showcase. She has been struggling with an undiagnosed illness and the band has not played a show in four months. The music fan in me was quite pleased that Screaming Females are still very much alive and have not lost a single ounce of the performance energy that makes them such a ridiculously good band. But the [...]
Punk rock is and always has been more about the gut than the mind. Screaming Females know as much, and the New Brunswick band's punchy brand of indie punk has never been weighed down much by pretension or overthinking. Still, the trio was curious to see just how far they could get on their musical reflexes alone. Hence we have Chalk Tape EP, a seven-song, 15-minute EP written and recorded on a whim as the songs came to them, no rewrites. The process alone protects Chalk Tape from too much criticism, considering it [...]
Marissa Paternoster is most popularly known as the guitarist and singer of New Brunswick punk rock trio Screaming Females. But that group is only one of her various artistic outlets. In addition to her work as a visual artist , Paternoster has also been recording solo music under the moniker Noun since her teenager years. Previous Noun releases include a 2012 7-inch and a 2010 full-length Holy Hell , both via Don Giovanni Records. Now the label is re-issuing her first tape, 20082s Forgotten Grin , an originally self-released 34-song release compiling four years of [...]

Chalk Tape is Screaming Females’ hot-on-the-heels follow-up E.P. to last year’s Steve Albini-engineered album Ugly. It is currently a limited edition cassette-only release, available exclusively at the Don Giovanni label showcase on Feb. 9 at Music Hall of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Though a re-release of most of these tracks on a less cool but more accessible format is inevitable, tri-state hipsters who miss this show will, tragically, never tell their grandchildren about it. According to the band’s blog, the approach they took in creating Chalk Tape was a total departure from their normal recording [...]

The top mp3s have gone through many incarnations since the beginning of Consequence of Sound in 2007. What used to be an exhaustive roundup of all the singles, remixes, covers, and undiscovered gems emailed to us any given week evolved into a compilation whittled down to our 10 favorite new songs.
