Introduction

This week seems to be about trans rights, and I’m here for that. It has been absolutely horrifying to see how hostile the world has become to trans people in the last 5 years. There’s an election in Canada next week and I have cautious optimism that we’re gonna pick the guy who isn’t an asshole, so there’s that.

I recently heard the new houseguest song “divine creation” (a fundraiser for trans support groups), and it led me to doing a whole feature on the all-trans emo band earlier this week.

Also this week Worry Bead records announced True Names, a compilation to support the Trans Youth Emergency Project. Here’s the first single:

I’ll have a lot more on this in the coming weeks. With Bandcamp Friday coming up next week, get your wallets out.

Got a record I should hear? Let me know about it.
