OP this list is amazing, and Hands Off Gretel is hands down the best band I've ever seen live.

So, here's some of my favourites!

More electronic goth than anything (this is an MCR blog, death spells is the closest approximation i can think of)

Female fronted, pop rock, Californian, amazing

Fronted by a wonderfully talented trans woman, one of the biggest names in Queercore (and rightfully so)

One of my favourite UK Punk bands, active in the late 70s, fronted by British-Somali Poly Styrene. The first song you should listen to is "Oh Bondage! Up Yours!

One of my favourite Queercore bands at the minute, Swallow is my favourite song its about eating the rich and it's fantastic

Hey so it's come to my attention that the Creators of Disco Elysium want you to share the game and not give the company who took over and fired them (illegally)?) any profits off of their ideas and work, and I originally joined tumblr 2 weeks ago when that post was going around about the Steam sale and how you should [Skull and Crossbones flag] it instead.

So.

in light of that.
