Electropop duo Uh Huh Her (Camila Grey and Leisha Hailey) take on Sonic Youth’s ‘Kool Thing’, their latest release from the reissue of their 2011 album Nocturnes. Nocturnes: Redux is due out 7 August via Kill Rock Stars.
Uh Huh Her’s ‘Kool Thing’ cover captures the energy of Kim Gordon’s swagger, amplified. With the duo’s signature indie sleaze buzz running throughout, the cover is our earworm of the week.
“It’s our love letter to this perfect feminist punk manifesto. We lead with Kim’s lyrics confronting patriarchal structures highlighting “fear of the female planet”. We deliberately left the male responses out. They’re absent by design. We’ve heard enough.”
