Produced by Barb Morrison (BlondieFranz FerdinandRufus Wainwright), who deftly captures Volpe’s soaring, crunching riffs and sultry magnetic voice while also delivering flashes of Brian EnoDelete The World follows closely on the heels of a Lunchicks renaissance.
 
The late 2023 premiere at the world-renowned DOC NYC documentary film festival of “Pretty Ugly: The Story of the Lunachicks” featuring Debbie Harry and Chris Stein of BlondieDexter Holland of The OffspringDonita Sparks and Jennifer Finch of L7, and others, is the perfect primer on Lunachicks’s lasting influence, which began when Volpe co-founded the ferocious punk band with her fellow high school classmates in the 1990s. Lunachicks released a half-dozen albums, toured the world numerous times, and staked a claim in rock history.

“A catchy, swaggering dance-punk song.” — Brooklyn Vegan
 
“‘Drink Me’ was inspired by my occasional tendency to lean precariously on vices — wine in this case — but also the collective experience of friends I had been in conversations with about obsession and addiction,” Volpe explains. “The lyric, ‘one foot in the grave, the other in my mouth,’ is a cheeky observation of how messy and dangerous our habit of running to the nearest exit can be.” See the video now via
