King Princess Is Back With a New Single 'Girls'

It’s a tango between violence and chaos, with Girls dropping King Princess fans straight to their knees.
Today, King Princess released another single from her upcoming album Girl Violence, set to drop in one month.
The New Yorker delves into themes of loneliness and self-sabotage, carrying them beyond the lyrics and into the song’s structure. It opens with slow-burning, vocal-led verses that swell into a guitar-heavy burst of energy.
The recurring chant, “Girls bring me to my knees,” reflects the narrator’s temporary coping mechanisms for loneliness and despair.
They keep the person they love at a distance, fearing that letting them in will only invite a deeper flood of pain.
In Girl Violence, King Princess frames the concept as something subtle yet insidious—not physical, but emotional, spiritual, and tinged with an eerie edge.
She portrays women, herself included, as both extraordinary and unsettling, and channels her curiosity into examining the love, loss, and transformation that emerge from her relationships with them.
The previously released Cry Cry Cry and RIP KP hint at the album’s grungy pop undercurrent. At times, the sound carries a “girly” touch, but never a trace of defenselessness—on the contrary, it’s fierce and unapologetic.
