about

London-based post-punk three-piece deep tan are today releasing their first new material of the year with their riotous new single ‘beginners’ krav maga’. Another brilliantly dark single with a wry take on contemporary themes, ‘beginners’ krav maga’ is also the first single since their widely acclaimed Speedy Wunderground single ‘tamu’s yiffing refuge’, which closed a big year for deep tan in style.

The band expand on the meaning behind the song: ‘beginners’ krav maga’ is a response to the idea that womxn should take self defense classes in order to feel safe on the street at night. womxn shouldn’t have to. yet it seems like every day there’s a new sarah everard, sabina nessa or aisling murphy. educate your sons, brothers, guy friends. male violence against womxn is an epidemic and it needs to stop, so we made a pop song to talk about it.

lyrics

i stand outside
i bide my time
wait for the mood to pass, hah hah

night time checklist
keys in a fist
in the dark i can't relax, hah hah

I could, you could, I could
i could, you could, i could
perfect beginners krav maga, perfect
stage one, beginners krav maga, perfect
i could

right left left right
moves in my mind
pai mei in the crowd, hah hah

state trust issues,
1312
patsy pinned to the ground, hah hah

kubotan, no you can't
cs gas, no you can't

could, you could, I could
i could, you could, i could
perfect beginners krav maga, perfect
stage one, beginners krav maga, perfect
i could
