Amazon Molly

Comedy post-riot grrrl, fun, punk songs about Tetris, sex and gender politics. Influenced by pop, punk, folk, riot grrl, musicals, grunge, and “lesbian music”, Amazon Molly like to think they sound like the awkward shouldn’t-still-be-acting-like-a-teenager offspring of The Murmurs and Northern State, conceived with the Buffy soundtrack playing in the background. Except there is no rap. (Yet.) http://www.myspace.com/amazonmollymusic

Carnist

Carnist are a DIY hardcore punk band from London England. Unlearn is our first album. It deals with the concept of unlearning societal norms and cultural traits which are contrary to our nature - be that our attitude towards non human animals or indeed humans who do not fall in line with stifling, archaic and claustrophobic ideas of what it is to be human. We oppose patriarchy, religion (and the myriad of ways these institutions have marred society - be that misogyny, homophobia, transphobia et al) and Speciesism.
