Produced by John Gosling (Psychic TV, Mekon, Jiz) ’Bed Bugs’ (2020) is the newest release by garage kink dominators Wild Daughter which, as James Jeanette intones, will leave you ‘creeping, and a-crawling’ with illicit delight. The accompanying music video, an original work by LA-based artist Richard Hawkins, is an erotic milieu - a collage of desire and critique. Hawkins’ video presents a queer longing, requited and unrequited via gay pornography,Hollywood queer baiting and uncensored male desire with cartoon stimuli and footage from Wild Daughter’s carnal ICA London performance (2019) and its legendary golden phallus. The seductive hum of ‘Bed Bugs’ (2020) raptures against the queer raunch of its video including disruptions, both camp and uncanny, which will ‘get under your skin, keep you burning’. Buckle up, and strap on, for Wild Daughter’s most uninhibited ride yet.
