Virginia Beach’s Indie rock group Feral Conservatives
premiered “Twenty-Eight” yesterday, a fun, but very political short film targeting Donald Trump.

The song itself is very post-punk with a little hint of pop and in between shots of Rashie Rosenfarb belting out her sugary, but edgy vocals, the trio take on their city while donning masks to take down every Trump sign they can get their hands on.

It has the light feel of a parody with the funny masks and alter egos, but follows them taking hammers to “Trump” signs and ends with them burning them in a big pile so it’s also pushing a powerful political statement into everyone’s face, and we love it.

The track is off the band’s new album Here’s to Almost which dropped earlier this year through Egghunt Records.

So check out “Gracie”, “El Chapo”, and The Plumber” as they perform a little “Community Service” around their town.
