Given early live outings across this summer - including at Reading & Leeds, Left of the Dial, Pitchfork Paris and The Great Escape First 50 last week - 'Killing It' seems destined to soundtrack basement indie shows and sticky-floored club nights alike. Disgusting Sisters explain the song some more: "Killing It is a song about owning your own life so completely that even if you chose to wreck it, you’re still in control - because in the end, the personal freedom to live on your own terms is what really matters."
Inspired by the destructive depravity of Harmony Korine's Trash Humpers, and Lars von Trier's provocative 1998 film The Idiots, the song's video is the perfect visual accompaniment, as the sisters take their burned out car to a dump on the outskirts of Paris and smash it to pieces. They're destroying something, yes, but in turn creating something new in their own disgusting image. They're not just killing it on this debut, they're - as the song goes - "Choking it / Clutching it tight by the nuts and ripping it... F*** yeah"
