Scottish duo Bratakus recently signed with Venn Records. Alongside this exciting announcement, the duo shares their latest single/video ‘Final Girls’. This sister duo composed of Brèagha Cuinn and Onnagh Cuinn are ready to take over the music scene, with a new album on the horizon (out 2026).
Bratakus shares the following about ‘Final Girls’:
“‘Final Girls’ is a song about the horror movie trope of the ‘Final Girl’ and all the rules they have to follow in order to survive the movie. The song talks about how the rules and standards that these characters have to abide by reflect the unspoken rules that society puts in place for women. Women are taught that we have to behave in a certain way, present ourselves in a certain way and deny ourselves certain things in order to stay safe or be treated with respect. This song is calling that out. We should not live in fear for simply existing in the way that we choose. The narrative needs to change around these situations. People need to stop putting the onus on women and girls and holding us to very outdated standards.”
The accompanying music is inspired by the horror classic Carrie.
