Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Dream Wife (band)" in English language version.
Dream Wife have evolved from an art school project to a jaw-dropping live act and one of the most talked-about new bands of 2018.
Dream Wife are inarguably one of the most exhilarating live rock bands to emerge within the last few years, straddling the fine line between fun and ferocity while blasting crowds with their mixture of late '70s post-punk and early '00s New York rock.
Fronted by Iceland-born, California-raised, art school-finished Rakel Mjöli, this London-based all-female pop-punk trio picked their name before they'd ever played together and have a ways to go before matrimony per se is likely to be within their ken. Sex and romance, however, Mjöli has a bead on from the male-bonding pissoff 'Sports!'—'Time is money/Never apologize/These are the rules'—to a finale called "After the Rain" where she both craves and rejects a tenderness that can only be provisional in a line of work that keeps her on the move. She knows sex and romance are easier to come by for a minor rock star, and is up for one or both from 'Validation' to 'U Do U' to 'So When You Gonna . . .' But the crux here is called 'Validation' because she knows that's the tough one without having figured out how to get it or why exactly she needs it so.
