about

“Take Up Space” is the playful soundtrack to being a twenty-something woman in London in 2018. It’s the first time the youthfully energetic four-piece Dream Nails have recorded acoustic tracks, and the result challenges the usual limitations and scrappiness of punk.

Recorded at Housman’s Bookshop in London on 12th September 2018, the songs on Take Up Space are interspersed between the band’s chatter, contagious laughter and answers to audience questions.

The 15-track album includes new songs Jillian, a punchline-filled banger about cult fitness coach Jillian Michaels; Chirpse Degree Burns (Text Me Back) a pacey wailer in three-part harmony about being ghosted by a crush, and a stripped-back take on their landmark song Deep Heat (about setting fire to Donald Trump’s dick).
