This post inspired by my very recent discovery of the band Broken Focus, a hardcore/metal band that has a transfem lead vocalist. Who might just be my new gender goals.
I really like https://open.spotify.com/album/25PRPqWH5Z3fOR2CHocRDq !!!
Myself :D
Nameless mist (atmospheric black metal)
Victory over the sun (avant-garde/prog black metal)
Kyros (prog-rock/synthpop)
Fogweaver (dungeon synth)
Bull of Apis Bull of Bronze (black metal)
Saving this for later
No such thing as too much black metal 🤌
I have two trans* artists that I really like.
Tiggrez Punch is a German feminist artist that mainly produces HipHop. I saw them live and I can only recommend them.
Awakesy! is a British transfem Artist that produces quite a wide Variety of genres, but mainly the darker styles of Techno and its subgenres. She has quite a lot of speedcore, but also lots of other cool stuff.
Lena Raine is the first person in my mind, some people were very hard on her being C418’s successor. But I believe she’s actually great, haven’t listen to her other works tho.
You should try Celeste :3
I’ve only played the game jam version I believe, not the fully finished game.
The game jam version is pretty good in its own right, but the full version is honestly incredible.
Underscores (I like their album U), then femtanyl
Kinda obsessed with their newest All The Time rn, but I like a bunch of her earlier stuff too
I really like Wallsocket.
same, U is good too but the highlights on wallsocket are phenomenal.
Came here looking for this, I LOVE underscores. Lena Raine is super cool too! Though different… At the same time I feel isolated in liking the Celeste OST much more than the Minecraft one.
Oh no Celeste is peak yeah
My favourites are resurrections and reach for the summit
TOTALLY great choices. I don’t think I can choose personally… WAAAAAAY too many bangers in that OST. I listen to the whole thing in the car sometimes on longer drives. <3
That underscores is like a good “driving somewhere late at night” type album. Very solid, 8/10.
Against Me!
Laura Jane Grace is a beautiful person. I love her music, both before and after she transitioned.
Favorite songs:
- Delicate, Petite & Other Things I’ll Never Be
- We Laugh at Danger (and Break All the Rules)
- 333
- Fuckmylife666
Laura Jane Grace is a legend for her history in the punk community.
Edit - fav songs:
You look like I need a drink
I’m an anarchist
How Low
Idk how I’ve never heard of this one before but it’s giving early-2000’s blink 182/the killers, 9/10 very solid!
Transgender dysphoria blues is my favorite song.
Reinventing Axl Rose 🎧
I believe Cheap Perfume has a trans member. They’re also awesome
Lena Raine!
Hell yeah, minecraft soundtrack lady
Celeste and guild wars 2 were my first exposure to her and I’ve been in love ever since! The tracks she’s done for Minecraft have been gorgeous though
I was afraid no one would mention her.
Eris drew and octa octa they just released a wonderful acid, breakbeat album as alchemical sisters. It is a testament, a statement. Transfemmes on top of their game shaking up electronic dance music. Its just so ridicoulesely fun
I’m a fan of Owlbear. They’re a power metal band with a transfem vocalist, and she also has a black metal solo act. I’ve been to a couple of shows with Owlbear in the lineup and they’re even better live.
Cab Ride Home, another metal band with a trans vocalist, had a pretty good album and a couple of EPs, but went on hiatus since she’s now a senator in Virginia.
went on hiatus since she’s now a senator in Virginia
Hell of a story arc there, wow!
Listening to owlbear right now, it’s pretty solid. Giving me some Blind Guardian/Killswitch Engage Holy Diver type vibes. Very nice, 8.5/10
Sophie is incredible. She made one of my favorite albums of all time, Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides. Highly recommend for fans of experimental pop and club music.
Sophie was amazing, and that album is incredible! I love her sound.
She also produced a song by Let’s Eat Grandma called Hot Pink that’s pretty great.
Laura Jane Grace is my favorite artist I love Against Me! And her solo works. Saw her concerts a few times shes really good
Definitely the artist I’ve most consistently loved. Been listening to her for like 12-13 years now. At first, at least one song confused me because it seemed like she was gendering herself as female, but she was stilling going by her deadname back then. In hindsight, it was obvious she had already tried to come out through songs before TDB released, but I hadn’t paid much attention to the lyrics in the most explicit songs.
Probably still Wendy Carlos. The Clockwork Orange soundtrack is tight, and was pioneering.
Recently got into Lex Walton. She’s pretty obscure, you’ve probably never heard of her lol!
