I recorded these songs years ago, but just now released them.
It's a mostly electronic riot grrrl inspired solo project. The band is called Phantom Creatures and the album is called Daydreams. Please give it a listen!
I have to do a community project thing and I think it'd be really sick to start a zine, I don't exactly know how to start one though, any advice? I'd like to make a website type of thing, I don't know really.
last night i finally saw the play/musical lost grrrl found, "the only play with a moshpit." i really enjoyed it! the songs are catchy and the plot has so much drama. as someone who actually has gone on tour i can confirm tours can really be that dramatic. i had a really good time and if you're in a place where you can go see this musical i recommend it!
i appreciate how the characters were realistically flawed, i feel like sometimes with feminism/riot grrrl there's an expectation for femmes to somehow be better/morally superior to their masculine counterparts when the truth is we are all flawed, we should just be regarded with the same amount of respect and forgiveness as everyone else.

Hi All!
I'm a pretty big riot grrl fan, but I've got a friend who is even more so. She's a fashion student, and I thought it would be cool to get here like a coffee table book of riot grrl/punk fashion.
I've seen a couple which focus on men's punk fashion but i've been unable to find something like this in the riot grrl sphere. Specifically, i'd be looking for a coffee table/big hard cover piece of riot grrl photo's which show of the type of outfits they had.
I saw Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth had something along these lines but if I could find something even more specific to Riot Grrrl that would be great!
If anyone knows where to point me , please let me know - and if this doesn't exist more broadly photography/visual books of the genre and scene would be appreciate.
All the best!
What are some good electro/ synth riot grrrl bands?
one of my favorite songs ever. it means so much to me. i never see anyone talk about it, does anyone else feel the lyrics and the song in their soul😭😭
So my favorite RiotGrrrl band is Bikini kill obvi but my favorite band in general is absolutely Babe Haven. They absolutely FUCK and I hope they play near where I live at some point :/
I feel so confident in my skin through riot girl and feminism. I feel like thats an awkward way fo start it, but thats how I feel theough and through. I love dressing up however I want and not giving a fuck what others think, and what they might think about me and my body. I love acting like a little wierdo and expressing myself without fear of judgements in this community. I love myself more now that im part of this community and find its a lot easier to love my body how it is and not have to worry about other people's standards of me. It makes me feel so strong and free, like I could do anything. I love riot grrrl!
I wanna hang with you girls! But I don't know of any actually active servers </3
been in london for about a year (from nyc) and been trying to find more like minded girls to go to gigs w, jam w, etc, as most of the people i know aren’t really into that sort of thing! i’ve been to plenty of gigs around smaller venues in london but want to befriend more gals who’d like the join me or even play together (even tho i’ve just started bass haha). i’d love to even make some docs or do gig photography if thats a common interest or any one wants free band pics
not sure if this is the right place but i thought id put myself out there in case anyone fun and creative wants to make new friends :))
Iv loved Beach Bunny since I was little n there music has the same values as the riot grrrl genre and has a lot of rock aspects but mostly sound indie and clashes with usual riot grrls music but also on the other hand by definition I feel like Beach Bunny could be in the same category soooo what do yall think
My band P.S. Destroy this is doing a small tour next weekend! We’re based out of Salt Lake City and will be playing the warehouse in Boise ID on May 21st and the No Fun Bar in Portland on May 22nd. Check us out on Instagram or wherever you stream music! We released our debut record “Glitter Pussy 3,000” this last fall.
I'm from Russia. And more than once I have encountered extremely negative opinions of foreigners about the people of this country. I don’t quite understand what ordinary people did to deserve this attitude. I understand that Putin’s policies are terrible, but this does not mean that all Russians are like that. I'll say more. The majority of the people not only do not support the war, but they themselves suffer from this, as well as from the internal politics of their country. And we are trying to fight this as best we can. Also, many are sent to prison for such actions. I don't make excuses for my people. I want people from other countries to know what life is like for ordinary people in Russia. And I want everyone to know that many Russians are very good people at heart. I hope for your understanding and feedback.
I wonder about it a lot like obviously I’m not first generation and is a genre or a movement? The movement continues because we say so? I wonder the same thing about anti folk…
