Newcastle band BOUDICCA have released a new track "Let Them" off an upcoming new EP "uncouth" due out Nov 14.
From the band....
To the staunch female activists, unionists, and revolutionaries of past and present.
'Let Them' alludes to the French Revolutionary period, and to Marie Antionette's death by guillotine in 1793.
Also referenced is William Buckland, a highly eccentric theologian and paleontologist in the Victorian Era, who allegedly ate the mummified heart of King Louis XIV at a dinner party. The story goes that he proclaimed "I have eaten many strange things, but I have never eaten the heart of a king before.”
