Queers in the ClubHold On Baby: King Princess’ Slice of Sincere Indie PopHold On Baby is the second album from up-and-coming artist, King Princess, aka Mikaela Strauss. Strauss said that her previous work has focused more on the heartbreak done to her, however, she expressed that this record marked how she ‘finally reached a point where I had to turn the barrel on myself’. What that means then for Hold On Baby, is a turning inwards, a move towards self-reflection and occasionally self-critical. Incorporating, aspects of indie pop, indie rock and electropop, Strauss is at her best when she makes songs full of tension and release (like Change The Locks or Dott...

Queers in the ClubUgly Season: Perfume Genius’ Abstraction of Art PopI actually wrote my dissertation on Mike Hadreas’ (aka Perfume Genius’) last two records, and it’s a shame that Ugly Season hadn’t been released, because it’s so rich and dense that I could pick it apart for days. On the album, Hadreas begins to expand into new, more abstract territory, navigating the pleasure of dark and light spaces. Ugly Season is highly textural, as Hadreas deploys his stunning falsetto over tracks composed of celeste, chimes and clarinet, of saxophone, strings and synths.Check out my dissertation! https://georgebaxterwrites.blogspot.com/2022/06/bodies-in-flux-dissertation.html

Queers in the ClubBig Time: Angel Olsen's Lost and Found LoveSince the release of her last record, 2020’s Whole New Mess, Angel Olsen has undergone several journeys. Mid-pandemic, she came out as queer and just three days later, her father died; soon after, she lost her mother too. Having found love and lost it so drastically, her latest project ‘Big Time’ serves to contemplate feelings that would be indescribable to most. Hurt and healing intertwine on this country-tinged project, highlighting Angel’s talent as a songwriter and co-producer.

Queers in the ClubThe Line Is A Curve: Kae Tempest Contemplates, Meditates, RetaliatesReleased back in April, I’ve been returning to the latest studio album by Kae Tempest (they/them). The Line Is A Curve is a highly meditative album experience, totalling 40 minutes of lyrical flows, set to moody electronica and hip-hop inspired beats. Kae tackles various issues within contemporary British society, and documents their own personal struggles. I found the record even more intriguing after reading Kae’s first non-fiction book ‘On Connection’, the perfect companion piece to reflect their talent as a poet and spoken word artist.

Queers in the ClubRENAISSANCE: Beyoncé’s Celebration of Queer Black ExcellenceLast week’s episode was called Six Songs for Summer but with this album, I think I should replace it with these Sixteen Songs for Summer. On her latest seventh studio album ‘RENAISSANCE’, Beyoncé weaves a rich tapestry that celebrates queerness and blackness, collaborating and sampling from some of the most exciting underground artists of colour, including trans icons Honey Dijon, T.S. Madison and Big Freedia. The album is an ode to disco, dance and to the ballroom scene, with Beyoncé playing the role of emcee. Category: Queers in the Club.

I did some research and found that this was the lead single off his album Islands, released on February 18th. Salvat is an Australian singer-songwriter who, having previously been shackled to a major music label, is newly independent. The album Islands is relatively simple but effective pop music. It spans the colourful and the melancholic, as Salvat explores themes of his sexuality, regret and broken promises. Songs Reviewed:PromiscuitySunbeamsM...

Queers in the ClubReview: Squeeze by SASAMI [RE-UPLOAD]Duality is at the heart of Squeeze, the second album by queer indie rock artist SASAMI. Just take the slightly threatening album art, in which SASAMI appears as a snake with the head of a woman, a representation of a deity from Japanese folklore, who would offer a small bundle resembling a baby to potential victims: the story goes that the spirit would kill those who discarded the bundle, but spare those who held the bundle. The conflict between explosive nu-metal rage and maternal gentleness is highly evident in this new album Squeeze.Songs Reviewed:...

Alynda Segarra, Segarra described this album as ‘nature punk’, not in that it’s a climate action album but it more so summarises the sound of this highly contemplative album backed by raw, earthy instrumentation. It’s a piece of indie rock that shimmers with Springsteen-esque hooks. Segarra is a queer woman who was born in the Bronx and raised by her Puerto Rican aunt and uncle, and themes of being a Latinx immigrant in the US make their presence known on this powerful project.Songs R...

Queers in the ClubReview: Heterosexuality by Shamir [RE-UPLOAD]On the album cover of Shamir Bailey’s February record, Heterosexuality, we see Shamir sat with antlers and hooves in a pink skirt. It’s a mythological being, undefined by gender. And if you couldn’t tell from such song titles as ‘Gay Agenda’ and ‘Cisgender’ the album Heterosexuality is ironically and unapologetically, queer. Spanning industrial, indie rock, folk and pop songs, Shamir’s approach to genre seems to be the same as their approach to gender – a transcendence above them all.Songs Reviewed:Caught UpCisgenderMy Score: 8/10

Queers in the ClubReview: The Gods We Can Touch by AURORA [RE-UPLOAD]AURORA has dropped a track called 'The Woman I Am’, from the deluxe version of her album 'The Gods We Can Touch' which I reviewed back in January. The album sees AURORA shedding some of her typically ethereal, reverb-y sounds for a more punchy, pop driven album. She retains some eccentric sounds that makes for enjoyable listening, such as the retro-pop lead single 'Cure For Me', inspired by the fight against conversion therapy. This feels particularly prevalent given that the UK government has green lit a non-legislative ban on conversion therapy, albeit not for trans people.Songs Re...
