Dum Dum Girls have a brand-new EP, End of Daze, which will be released tomorrow on Sub Pop. The first single, “Lord Knows,” is huge and haunting and romantic, and the video, which we’re premiering here (thanks, Dee Dee!), and which was directed by Christin Turner, is full of important witchy vibez and flower crowns. Enjoy/obsess.
Dum Dum Girls are on tour now. Check here for dates.
Well hello there. Next month's theme is IMITATION. We're looking for written and visual work that has to do with mimicry, replication, re-enactment, dramatization, novelization, repetition. Not to mention: camouflage, fakes, counterfeits, “authenticity,” “reality.” Send your stuff here, and thanks. ♥

Log in to replyI am really happy to se this video on Rookie Mag. I adore what Tavi does, she is a girl after my own heart. I just wanted to add to the witchy vibes that the video is based off the Vestal Virgins of ancient Rome. They were keepers of the eternal flame of Rome, and the only women to have full rights as citizens. However if the flame went out they were severely punished. Its rumored that if they did not remain virgins they were entombed alive.
