South African duo The SoapGirls have announced their new album ‘Society’s Rejects’ which is set for release on July 28th. Taking their name from making and selling soap as children, The SoapGirls were given their name by the general public back in 2004.
“We’ve been The SoapGirls since we were 8 and 9 selling hand made soap and street performing for various causes, we did this 365 days of the year for 9 years to raise money for charity”.
The SoapGirls uncompromising brand of music has been labelled “Revolt Rock’, a mix of revolting and revolutionary music.
“Put it this way if music was a hand, revolt rock would be the middle finger, it’s there to piss people off make them think in this fucked up world.”
Described as “a kick in the face followed by a kiss”, the album is about society and how it “rejects anyone that tries to question the system. We are sold a dream of being free when in actual fact we’re not, if you do not conform and follow the guidelines society sets out for you you are vilified and rejected”
