Great punk rock statement songs are an endangered species, but Melbourne’s, Lazertits have had an absolute classic year. “Gender Studies” was a sardonic and absolutely catchy commentary on the popular assumptions and misconceptions about feminism; “Ladies” a statement of power in a patriarchal world, and now their newest single, “Boss Bitch” continues this tradition.

Hammering triumphant call-and-response lines about women in power over droning fuzzed-guitar and a confidently chugging rhythm section, “Boss Bitch” is a catchy and serrated tongue-in-cheek anthem for all those pant-suit wearing ‘nasty women’; for all those ‘hysterical’ ladies and for all those ‘intimidating’ women who speak their minds.

It’s for all the ladies in charge, who are done with being called bossy.
