Lambrini Girls Are Back to Break Stuff: Inside “Bang Bang Bang” and Their Fierce New Album No Refunds

If you’ve spent any time tracking the underground punk circuit over the last few years, you already know that Brighton’s Lambrini Girls don’t really do “subtle.” Frontwoman Phoebe Lunny and bassist Selin Macieira have built a reputation on spitting venom at institutional rot, punching up at fragile egos, and turning sweaty club floors into absolute war zones.

Now, the chaotic duo is officially gearing up for their next chapter. Lambrini Girls have announced their highly anticipated second studio album, No Refunds, which is locked in for a January 15, 2027 release via City Slang. To herald the arrival of the new record, they’ve dropped its blistering lead single, “Bang Bang Bang”—and trust us, it doesn’t pull a single punch.

What is “Bang Bang Bang” All About?

Right out of the gate, “Bang Bang Bang” hits like a freight train. It’s a propulsive, teeth-rattling punk track built for maximum volume and immediate crowd-surfing. But beneath the distorted guitars and relentless percussion lies the band’s trademark razor-sharp social commentary.

According to Lunny, the song’s conceptual core zeroes in on a very specific, toxic archetype: “A man who has been revered as a Christ-like figure but also as the devil.”

It’s a scathing look at false idols, inflated power dynamics, and the men who manage to manipulate public perception while leaving destruction in their wake. Lambrini Girls wrap these heavy themes in dark humor, raw aggression, and structural punk chaos, making it feel less like a standard song release and more like a public reckoning.

A Heavier, More Radical Era: Inside the No Refunds Album

While their earlier work—including standout releases like Who Let The Dogs Out—mastered the art of full-throated, blood-soaked garage rock catharsis, No Refunds is shaping up to be a deeply visceral experience.

In interviews surrounding the announcement, the band has noted that the record was forged in response to an increasingly bleak socio-political landscape. We’re talking about a world grappling with the rise of the manosphere, the heavy encroachment of AI, global violence, and the creeping normalization of fascism.

At the same time, the album reflects an intense personal journey. The past couple of years haven’t been a walk in the park for the duo. The whirlwind speed of their sudden rise took a heavy physical and emotional toll, pushing them to confront the realities of life on a rocket-ship trajectory. That friction—between wanting to tear down the world and trying to keep your head screwed on straight—paves the backbone of No Refunds.

No Refunds Tracklist Overview

Though fans have a little wait until January, the forthcoming record promises a fierce run of tracks that blend classic riot grrrl ethos with modern post-punk urgency:

• “Truth To Power”

• “Cult Of Celebrity”

• “White Man’s World”

• “Spilt”

• “Succulent Chinese Meal”

• “Bang Bang Bang”

The Video: Gritty, Raw, and Real

Directed by Harv Frost, the music video for “Bang Bang Bang” matches the song’s uncompromising energy. Eschewing flashy over-production, the visual leans heavily into performance art. Shot in a gritty, industrial space, it captures Lunny and Macieira locked into a hypnotic, ferocious live-wire routine.

It’s a great reminder of why Lambrini Girls are widely considered one of the best live acts on the circuit today. They don’t need gimmicks; they just need instruments, amplification, and absolute conviction.
