It starts with a snappy beat that suggests Roy Orbison's 'Oh, Pretty Woman' is about to kick in, before quickly heading for the low-end and getting a little dirt on those thick strings. Promised before Christmas, Girl Band's 'Lawman' single is out Friday, but you can stream it now.

We suggest you do. A nagging chainsaw riff, a bit of Black Francis style ranting over the top ("I used to be good looking!" comes a yell/drawl from across the room) and a noisy build to something... well, even noisier.

Stream it below or pick up the 7" here – but be quick, it's a limited Any Other City run of 300 copies.

For their next trick, Girl Band tour the UK in the second half of January.

Their February schedule finds them gigging back home:

Feb 1 – Crane Lane Theatre, Cork
Feb 8 – Whelans, Dublin
Feb 13 – Roisin Dubh, Galway
