  • Queer Core / Riot Grrrl

Cheerleader

by Skint Knees

We are a Riot Grrrl band based in Sheffield, UK. Unafraid to be ourselves and uninterested in toning ourselves down, we want to make our name for ourselves by screaming about what we are passionate about - Gender, sexuality, and a better society for everyone. This track is off our new EP 'Bite Back'

For fans of
  • Punk / grunge

Pornsick

by Femegades

Hi, we are Femegades and this is the title track from our debut EP "Pornsick". It is 5 songs covering subjects of women subjected to male violence, consent, and 'big porn'. We feel we're pretty unique in what we write about, and aim to be a band that stands for something. We hope you like the song x

God Is A Woman

by BABYTEETH

“It’s unusual for us to record a cover but it came from our live shows. None of us are guitar snobs, we appreciate pop music too, and Ariana is a really great writer. Also half of us have a crush on her so we hope she won’t hate our version.”

For fans of
  • Fuzzy, Rainy Alt-punk

The Empty Page

We are The Empty Page, a fuzzy, melodic trio from drizzly Manchester. We like listening to noisy indie rock, giggling about stupid things in transit vans and jumping around on low stages in sweaty basements. Our new song When The Cloud Explodes is about inevitable rainy day creativity in the North.

For fans of
  • Rock

Bizou

For fans of
  • Alt rock, punk

BABYTEETH

Hey Musical Lovers, we're called BABYTEETH b/c we think we'll probably all fall out! Not really, we're as tight as ever, on and off the stage. We're a 5 piece London alt-rock band and this is our 2nd single, "Shame". Produced by Cam Blackwood, it smacks you around the head - play loud. Love, BT
