WE ARE THE PERIOD STAINS ON THE RED CARPET!

Gossip is young + full of white heat. We have existed for 5 years. We are a punk band consisting of three humans. We are interested in art, crime, politics, food, change, the underground, dancing, fashion, style, substance, taste, despair, desire, subversive individuals and movements. We will nvr die + we will nvr diet. This is life dedikation to our aktion. We are from Arkansas a.k.a. "thee deep south"aka "dirt jail". As a recording unit we have three full length albums, various 7"s, 10"s, 12"s & only one pet among us (Hannahs dog Sadie). We believe and are inspired in the eternal power of The KLF, Tracey Emin, Kathleen Hanna, Nina Simone, Divine, John Cage, Yoko Ono, Arthur Russell, Yayoi Kusama, Rita Ackermann, Kim Gordon, Nico, Tristan Tzara, Darby Crash, Lydia Lunch, Bessie Smith, Angela Davis, Tobi Vail + all the other deth-killers, luv-fukkrs and total smasherss that came before us. If it wasn't for you we would not be here.

We have toured with Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Le Tigre, Erase Errata, John Spencer Blues Explosion, Stereo Total, White Stripes, Sonic Youth, Sleater Kinney, Har Mar Superstar, Les Georges Leningrad, The Kills, Tracy + the plastics, Glass Candy, Pre, Comanechi, Panther, Chromatics and several other musical agitators/sootherss. We have played festivals infront of thousands and basement shows for five people (the latter being our personal favorite). We are dripping with raw power and ready to teach the youth who they should really be hating.
