Perfect Pussy
Abrasive, static-drenched hardcore that finds beauty in the red. Vocals fight through a wall of noise for a sound that is both punishing and deeply human.

Perfect Pussy sounds like a radio station being broadcast from the center of a hurricane. It is a dense, unrelenting wall of sound where the guitars and drums are pushed so far into the red they begin to disintegrate into pure texture. Amidst this sonic debris, Meredith Graves' vocals act as a desperate anchor, buried deep in the mix but radiating a raw, undeniable humanity that cuts through the distortion.
What truly sets them apart is the inclusion of a keyboardist who provides a shimmering, often dissonant layer of high-frequency noise that elevates the music from standard hardcore into something more avant-garde and atmospheric. It is music that prioritizes the physical sensation of sound over traditional song structure, creating a space where aggression and vulnerability coexist in a state of permanent tension.
Start with 'Say Yes to Love' to experience their most cohesive statement. It is a short, sharp shock of a record that captures the band's live volatility while revealing the sophisticated emotional core hidden beneath the layers of feedback and static.
