Screaming Females enlists Sammus and Moor Mother for “End of My Bloodline” remix
It hasn’t been long since Screaming Females released their new record, All At Once, and it’s been an even shorter time since they tore up Union Transfer in support of it. Still, if you’ve been longing for more Screamales in your life lately, then the band’s latest news should do the trick. Thanks to a collaboration with Philly experimental artist Moor Mother and rapper Sammus — both labelmates on Don Giovanni Records — one of the tracks off All At Once now has a totally different sound.
“End of My Bloodline” was already one of the decidedly less scream-y songs on the new record, veering toward haunting and brooding, but the remix takes it into new territory. Lengthened to nearly three minutes, the remix gives the track time to explore what it’s like to have other artists add their voices to Screaming Females’ songs (spoiler alert, it’s pretty great). Just putting this out into the universe, but Screamales’ Marisa Paternoster, Moor Mother’s Camae Ayewa and Enongo Lumumba-Kasongo of Sammus would make one heck of a supergroup, should the trio ever choose to make the remix a live affair.
Listen below. In even more Screaming Females news, the band also just announced a string of fall tour dates with Kitten Forever, including a September 28 stop in Lancaster at the American Bar & Grill. Keep an eye on the XPN Concert Calendar as more information on that gig becomes available.
