Problem Patterns are not limited by age or ability or binary identities. They don't have a front person, they swap instruments and roles to ensure that each member of the group has a voice. The band’s admiration for Bikini Kill and the riot grrrl movement led to an online conversation with the artist Kathleen Hanna, who advised them from her Los Angeles porch. She told them that if there wasn’t a backlash, then Problem Patterns weren’t doing their job properly.
We think it's fair to say they're doing their job properly... You will too with this brand new debut album. F**k YESSSSS! On pink vinyl limited to 700 copies, do get in quickly. This is one of the very best. Shipping in time for release day on 27th October.

You don’t respect our sexuality
Because you just think of us sexually
You don’t respect when we scream in your face
And yet we’re the ones who are out of place for calling out the men who mixed us up with the other band of queers who play with us
It’s just a history, of bad men
A fucking history, of bad men
Sound engineers putting their hands on me,
I’m not getting taking seriously
To the man who couldn’t stand it when we got rewarded and decided to attack us
It’s a history, of bad men
A fucking history, of bad men
And to the men we already shouted about
Who put us on a list like a favour to us
And the band of men who sing a song for us, how nice
Don’t write a song for, how fucking boring?
Men are so fucking boring
Auuuggghhhh
It’s a history, of bad men
A fucking history of bad men
Afrofuturist punk from Philly that twists the hardcore sounds of '90s DC and San Diego into a seething mass of wires and roots. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 3, 2019
Melbourne-based Slush's debut EP is filled with feminist, punky-pop tunes that make for an exciting introduction to their music. Bandcamp New & Notable May 10, 2019

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
