Hysteria. PMS. feelings? (Kate Nash | A Response)

It’s funny how a woman is slayed for expressing anger. I must be hysteric. PMSING HARDCORE. trying to be punk. How about I’m just sick of crap uninspired chart music, bullies and sexism. I’ve been hurt and I’m angry and playing bass and shouting about it makes me feel better. That’s all it is. And if that freaks people out then good.

Everett True reacts to Ryan Schreiber’s article about M.I.A. pretty much exactly the way you’d expect him to

I shudder to think what he’ll make of Russian feminist punk rock collective Pussy Riot

 Everett True

Fucking love punk rock sometimes. Fucking love feminism sometimes. Fucking love YouTube sometimes.

“Revolt in Russia – the charisma of protest/Revolt in Russia, Putin’s got scared!”

Everett True and the Gender Obsession

Yes, he does say that there are good male musicians/bands. But it feels to me like they nearly have to prove themselves worthy of consideration
