Laura Jane Grace In The Trauma Tropes – Your God (God’s D*ck)
Polyvinyl Record Co. and Laura Jane Grace In The Trauma Tropes are excited to present “Your God (God’s D*ck),” the new single from Grace’s rock band featuring her wife, Paris Campbell Grace (vocals), and Athens, Greece-based musicians Jacopo Fokas (bass) and Orestis Lagadinos (drums).
Written last summer during a songwriting fellowship retreat in Greece, “Your God (God’s D*ck)” is a hilarious, heretic, and brilliant excoriation of religious devotion, or of using God’s supposed words and one’s belief in them to f*ck your fellow citizens. A balancing act between Queen, Elton Motello and L7, it is an instantly addictive tune, a should-be-hit that feels like a brazen test of the new right’s alleged devotion to free speech. (Grace notably plays the Baglamas here, historically associated with Greek protest music, Rebetiko.)
