The Anemic Boyfriends

The Anemic Boyfriends has been played over 10 times on NTS, first on 28 January 2016. The Anemic Boyfriends's music has been featured on 11 episodes.

The Anemic Boyfriends were 80's post-punk band from Anchorage, Alaska. Their lyrics are delivered with a mocking leer, and then a goofy little melodica hook punch-lines them, sounding exactly how Ashlee Simpson’s embarrassed Saturday Night Live dance looked. So yeah, “Guys Are Not Proud” is an amazing song, apparently a favorite of John Peel’s (for more on that, go here, the only place I could find anything about these gals) and clearly a cut worthy of the post-punk pantheon…
