Junkyard Lipstick

Junkyard Lipstick were a five-piece, female metal band from Cape Town, South Africa formed in 2011. Their songs are fast-paced, catchy, bass-heavy, and their lyrics incorporate "a playful sense of humour" with an "odd but interesting amalgamation of gore and a more delicate trace of femininity." In 2016 Junkyard Lipstick disbanded.
