London-based and British/Icelandic born Dream Wife released their self-titled debut album earlier this year, and now they’ve shared the music video for album closer F.U.U. A live show favourite with one of our resident Bad Bitches, vocalist Rakel Mjöll, repeatedly screaming “I’m gonna fuck you up / I’m gonna cut you up / I’m gonna fuck you up,” F.U.U. receives a visual accompaniment as ferocious as the song directed by Aidan Zamiri and featuring guest Icelandic rapper Fever Dream, as well as women’s wrestling collective EVE Wrestling. Wrestlers featured include Charlie Morgan, Livvii Grace, Bea Priestley, Erin Angel, Jamie Hayter and newly crowned XWA British Heavyweight Champion Rhia O’Reilly. Watch F.U.U. via YouTube below.
Dream Wife on the F.U.U. music video:
“For our new video for F.U.U consider: ROCK AND ROLL AS AN EXTREME SPORT. A place where everyone gets a 10, there are no winners, no losers, just high adrenaline, high octane good times.
F.U.U is a partly tongue in cheek, partly deadly serious exploration of gleeful aggression and where better to WORK OUT this aggression than in the wrestling ring?
We would like to thank all of the Bad Bitches, Aidan & the Dream Team and the gang at EVE WRESTLING from the bottom of our hearts, as they taught us; everyone is a wrestler, maybe they just don’t realise it yet.”
