Distorted sounds, rushing velocity, and a dramatic interplay of "quiet and loud", hot on the heels of their striking debut "Soul Sister," alternative rock band The Vounds have wasted no time dropping their second single.
"Cunty Gyal" is the definitive punk track of the summer: infectious as hell, packed with a blistering groove that kicks post-punk and British beat to the curb. The moment that unshakeable intro riff hits, you're practically forced to lose yourself to pure impulse on the dance floor.
Riding the sweaty, midsummer London Underground and grinding through a minimum-wage job, the protagonist keeps this ethos close to their heart, fueling their defiance and dreaming bigger than anyone else. This is the ultimate punk anthem for anyone who refuses to forget they are "that girl," serving cuntyness no matter what - track that forces everyone clawing their way up from the bottom to bare their teeth and rise.
The Vounds are a London-formed, Tokyo-based four-piece alternative band featuring Aya (vocals), Ryo (bass), Haruka (guitar), and Tetsu (drums). Rooted in alternative rock, the band draws on its members' diverse musical backgrounds to forge a sound where post-punk attitude, indie sleaze aesthetics, alt-pop hooks, and hip-hop-driven rhythms collide. By blending raw guitars with dancefloor momentum and sharp vocal phrasing, The Vounds sit squarely at the intersection of alternative rock and club culture, equally at home in a sweaty basement venue or on a massive festival stage. This boundary-crossing approach drives bold, fluid songwriting that moves effortlessly between genres while maintaining a razor-sharp, cohesive identity. At the center of their sonic landscape is Aya's commanding and versatile vocal presence, which shifts seamlessly from husky, breath-laced intimacy to soaring high registers and rapid-fire delivery. Her performance is anchored by a tight, high-impact rhythm section and dynamic, effects-textured guitar work. That raw studio chemistry translates powerfully on stage. Defined by explosive builds, controlled tension, and an undeniable command over the crowd, their live sets are urgent, deeply physical, and impossible to ignore. Formed in London, Aya's second home, and shaped by the members' lives in Tokyo, the band beautifully embodies the duality of both metropolises. Their sound channels an indie sleaze sensibility infused with London's underground grit and Tokyo's neon precision, creating a cross-cultural identity that is vibrant, current, and primed for the global stage.
