The Anti-Queens, Toronto’s premiere punk rock ‘n’ rollers, have just released their latest LP, Disenchanted, with an accompanying video for the track Overthinking. The new album appears worldwide on digital and vinyl formats via Stomp Records.
For over a decade, The Anti-Queens have been a prominent force in Toronto’s music scene. The band is led by the fiercely talented and dynamic duo of Emily Bones and Valerie Knox, who bring a punk-rock energy that challenges the male-dominated music industry. Known for their electrifying live performances, they’ve gained a reputation for their unstoppable energy and powerful stage presence.
Their latest album Disenchanted, recorded at Drive Studios in Toronto by Steve Rizun and Dave Baksh, continues their tradition of crafting infectious, hook-laden anthems that will surely delight fans of Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, The Distillers, Hole, L7, Lunachicks and The Warning. Written by Emily Bones and Valerie Knox over the course of the pandemic, this album is a conscious meeting of vulnerability, self-reflection, and finding one’s self-worth and motivation to attack what life throws at you head-on. As the band says: “Nothing is held back and everything is on the table. Disenchanted, light and dark, bright and dreary. Magical and kinda sad.”
