about

Modern pop provocateur Boyfriend continues to build anticipation for her forthcoming album with a new single out today featuring Pussy Riot. “Dance With the Devil” is a debaucherous offering that fuses rock, dance and hyperpop into a lustful anthem. This pairing of Boyfriend and Pussy Riot stands at the forefront of counterculture and reclaiming what womxn are owed.

"I believe that Virgin Mary was a feminist," says Nadya Tolokonnikova of Pussy Riot about this track, "and if she lived today, she'd be making music with Boyfriend and Pussy Riot.

“I grew up believing in the Devil,” says Boyfriend on today’s release. “Try as they might to depict him as evil, my main takeaway was that he lived in the land of cigarettes and sex.. he drank red wine, gambled, had a choir of electric guitars and was the keeper of the orgasm. This song is an invitation to the Devil’s party, where indulgence isn’t a sin and temptation isn’t a threat. It’s also an inversion of the patriarchal depictions of Satan... if God is a woman, so is the Devil, and she’s way more fun to hang with."

lyrics

Come here and dance with the devil
Come here and dance with the devil
Come here and dance with the devil

High heel cold steel
Soul made of metal

Come here and dance with the devil
Come here and dance with the devil
Come here and dance with the devil

Drop top foot down
smash on the pedal

Holy Spirit
Holy squirt
Take communion
Quench your thirst
I can save you
I’m your church
Suck my milk out
Second birth
Just call me Lucifer
I’ll introduce you to
Legions of demons and heathens seducing you
Business as usual
make me delusional
tie me up try me as if its the crucible

Hail Mary
Full of grace
Bless these holy whips and chains
Hold my hand
As I pray
Lock the door and we can play
Nobody needs to know
You now before my throne
I am here inside you

Come here and dance with the devil
Come here and dance with the devil
High heel cold steel soul made of metal
Drop top foot down smash on the pedal

ACAB
AC AC AB
Lady boss
Leather whip
pleasures never ending
ACAB
I'm your holy daddy
I'm on top raping you dominating baby

about

Boyfriend New Orleans, Louisiana

Boyfriend has been called a “mysterious, raunchy feminist” by NPR, a “sex-positive English nerd” by Huffington Post and “endearingly weird” by Paper Magazine. She coined the term "Rap Cabaret,” to describe her live show which is, according to Gambit Magazine, a stage show "as much cone-bra, arena-sized Madonna as it is an intimate, hilariously profane psychosexual bedroom drama.” ... more
