Interview with Potty Mouth Interview with Potty Mouth Believe it or not, Western Massachusetts has quite the music history when it comes to kick-ass alternative rock. You have Dinosaur Jr. hailing from Amherst along with ex-Sonic Youth punk rock power couple Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon who have lived there for nearly a decade. Miracle Legion and Polaris front man Mark Mulcahy call Springfield home and out of Northampton are awesome bands like Speedy Ortiz and Potty Mouth making names for themselves. Potty Mouth will play at Fete on May 10, and I had the chance to chat with bassist Ally Einbinder, guitarist and vocalist Abby Weems and drummer Victoria Mandanas about the show and whatever else has been happening with one of the best bands in New England. Rob Duguay: So Potty Mouth will be playing at Fete on May 10. I find it stupendously weird that bands from Massachusetts have a hit or miss experience when it comes to playing a show in Providence. Either you have a huge crowd genuinely wanting to check the band out or you are playing for the bartender and the sound guy with only a few people there for the show. With that being said, what’s your opinion of the scene here in Providence from a touring band’s point of view? Ally Einbinder: There’s some really exciting bands coming out of Providence right now, like Downtown Boys and Malportado Kids. Both bands share members and I can’t get enough of either. I live in Boston so PVD doesn’t feel that far from me and I get to hear about or see a lot of cool bands from that area because of the geographic proximity. RD: Potty Mouth is from Northampton, which has a great cavalcade of up-and-coming acts like yourselves and a contingent of legendary musicians like Mark Mulcahy, Dinosaur Jr.’s J Mascis and ex- Sonic Youth founder Thurston Moore. What’s the music scene like in Northampton and is it difficult or easy for a local band to get their start there? AE: The scene in Northampton is sort of amorphous from my perspective. The population of young people is constantly changing as people move in and out, due to the high number of people who move to the area primarily for college or grad school. Both Victoria and I moved to the area for college and we basically decided to stay because we had created this band. I think that’s what happens with a lot of folks. They’re drawn to the area for school, and they stay because of some creative pursuit they establish while they’re here. Starting a band here is as easy as you make it for yourself. There is definitely not a shortage of creative people who play or have an interest in playing music. There is not a shortage of accessible venues, either. It’s got enough of a “small town” vibe that finding others to play with and finding places to play doesn’t feel totally overwhelming. Crowds at shows are usually very affirming and open to hearing weirder, more experimental stuff. For me, Western Mass. has always felt like a comfortable place to try something new. RD: Is it true that there’s a money hungry guy there who owns nearly every music venue and shop in Northampton who has a bad reputation for screwing over bands by doing things like taking a cut from your merch sales or not coming through with a guarantee that he said the band was going to get? AE: There is a person in Northampton who owns several different venues, none of which we have played. Fortunately, there are also many, many great independently owned venues, shops, and non- profit spaces in the area, which makes it so there’s really not a shortage of alternative outlets for supporting both local and touring musicians and other creative people. A great example of this is Flywheel, a 100% volunteer-run, non-profit art space in Easthampton. Recently, the Julie Ruin and Screaming Females played a sold-out show there. As a touring band, you quickly begin to learn about the reputations and business practices of different venues in specific cities around the country. It feels good to know we live in an area with lots of alternative options. RD: One thing that I found very cool about Potty Mouth is that you have a riot grrl angst that exudes the styles and attitude of acts like Bikini Kill and Sleater-Kinney as well as musicians and performance artists like Kim Gordon and Kathleen Hannah. Do you find a huge influence in any of those acts and what’s your opinion on the state of the riot grrl movement in the 21st century? Victoria Mandanas: Riot grrrl was great for a lot of people in its day and its influence continues to be far-reaching, but what we are doing is more along the lines of pop punk, or punk pop. Yeah, we share a name with a Bratmobile album and we’re all fans of their music but the ideas a lot of people have about our relationship to riot grrrl are for the most part projection. RD: Last year Potty Mouth put out their debut album Hell Bent; can fans expect any new recordings to come out in 2014? Abby Weems: I think so! We’re working on a ton of new stuff and hope to record our second full length this summer, so maybe something will get out there later in the year. We do actually play a lot of new songs live though! If you’re looking to see what’s happening in New England musically beyond the comforts of Providence, head to Fete and check out Potty Mouth on May 10. Grab a copy of their awesome debut Hell Bent that’s been out for the past year and bask in the sounds of an amazing rock & roll band. Join me and have some fun!.

    The ‘Race Riot’ Within and Without ‘The Grrrl One’; Ethnoracial Grrrl Zines’ Tactical Construction of Space by Addie Shrodes A thesis presented for the B. A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2012 © March 19, 2012 Addie Cherice Shrodes Acknowledgements I wrote this thesis because of the help of many insightful and inspiring people and professors I have had the pleasure of working with during the past three years. To begin, I am immensely indebted to my thesis adviser, Prof. Gillian White, firstly for her belief in my somewhat-strange project and her continuous encouragement throughout the process of research and writing. My thesis has benefitted enormously from her insightful ideas and analysis of language, poetry and gender, among countless other topics. I also thank Prof. White for her patient and persistent work in reading every page I produced. I am very grateful to Prof. Sara Blair for inspiring and encouraging my interest in literature from my first Introduction to Literature class through my exploration of countercultural productions and theories of space. As my first English professor at Michigan and continual consultant, Prof. Blair suggested that I apply to the Honors program three years ago, and I began English Honors and wrote this particular thesis in a large part because of her. I owe a great deal to Prof. Jennifer Wenzel’s careful and helpful critique of my thesis drafts. I also thank her for her encouragement and humor when the thesis cohort weathered its most chilling deadlines. I am thankful to Prof. Lucy Hartley, Prof.

    Allison Wolfe Interviewed by John Davis Los Angeles, California June 15, 2017 0:00:00 to 0:38:33 ________________________________________________________________________ 0:00:00 Davis: Today is June 15th, 2017. My name is John Davis. I’m the performing arts metadata archivist at the University of Maryland, speaking to Allison Wolfe. Wolfe: Are you sure it’s the 15th? Davis: Isn’t it? Yes, confirmed. Wolfe: What!? Davis: June 15th… Wolfe: OK. Davis: 2017. Wolfe: Here I am… Davis: Your plans for the rest of the day might have changed. Wolfe: [laugh] Davis: I’m doing research on fanzines, particularly D.C. fanzines. When I think of you and your connection to fanzines, I think of Girl Germs, which as far as I understand, you worked on before you moved to D.C. Is that correct? Wolfe: Yeah. I think the way I started doing fanzines was when I was living in Oregon—in Eugene, Oregon—that’s where I went to undergrad, at least for the first two years. So I went off there like 1989-’90. And I was there also the year ’90-’91. Something like that. For two years. And I met Molly Neuman in the dorms. She was my neighbor. And we later formed the band Bratmobile. But before we really had a band going, we actually started doing a fanzine. And even though I think we named the band Bratmobile as one of our earliest things, it just was a band in theory for a long time first. But we wanted to start being expressive about our opinions and having more of a voice for girls in music, or women in music, for ourselves, but also just for things that we were into.

  • The Appropriation and Packaging of Riot Grrrl Politics by Mainstream Female Musicians
    Popular Music and Society, Vol. 26, No. 1, 2003 “A Little Too Ironic”: The Appropriation and Packaging of Riot Grrrl Politics by Mainstream Female Musicians Kristen Schilt “RIOT GIRL IS: BECAUSE I believe with my wholeheartmindbody that girls constitute a revolutionary soul force that can, and will, change the world for real” (“Riot Grrrl Is” 44) “Girl power!” (Spice Girls) Introduction Female rock musicians have had difficulty making it in the predominantly white male rock world. Joanne Gottlieb and Gayle Wald note that women’s participation in rock music usually consists of bolstering male performance, in the roles of groupie, girlfriend, or back-up singer (257). Even in punk rock, women are often treated as a novelty by the music press and cultural critics. Male bands such as the Sex Pistols and the Damned achieve rock notoriety while their female counterparts, like the Slits and the Raincoats, sink into obscurity. However, 1995 saw an explosion in the music press about a new group of female musicians: the angry women. Hailed in popular magazines for blending feminism and rock music, Alanis Morissette topped the charts in 1995. Affectionately named the “screech queen” by Newsweek, Morissette combined angry, sexually graphic lyrics with catchy pop music (Chang 79). She was quickly followed by Tracy Bonham, Meredith Brooks, and Fiona Apple. Though they differed in musical style, this group of musicians embodied what it meant to be a woman expressing anger through rock music, according to the music press. Popular music magazines argued that musicians like Morissette were creating a whole new genre for female performers, one that allowed them to assert their ideas about feminism and sexual- ity.
