Maybe one of them fits you. Newsletter. Irritated by the standard four-guys-on-stage scene in the early 1980s, Mecca Normal – Jean Smith and David Lester – formed their voice-and- guitar duo with one thing on their mind. Changing the world. Weirdly, they succeeded. Frequently cited as an inspiration to the co-founders of Riot Grrrl, Smith regularly spoke from the stage between songs in the 80s and 90s, encouraging women in the audience to form bands of their own, and a few key figures did just that. “Jean Smith was really poetic and had feminist ideas at the core of a lot of her songs and she wasn’t ashamed of it. And when I saw her, I was just like, that’s it. I’m done. I’m sold.” Kathleen Hanna, Bikini Kill (The Fader, 2010) For a few years in the 90s, Vancouver’s Mecca Normal headlined (and sometimes sold out) shows on the west coast and in the Northeastern USA, yet, until now, there hasn’t been a live album. For a brief time in the mid-90s, New Zealander Peter Jefferies (Nocturnal Projections) was on drums. Known for the intensity of their live shows, this one borders on incendiary. Recorded at The Cabaret, a beautiful little theatre in Montréal, Québec on April 16, 1996 for later broadcast on CBC’s Brave New Waves, Smith’s unparalleled delivery of songs about injustice is viscerally enmeshed with Lester’s furious guitar. As for the drums… while there is wisdom in not allowing romantic partners in a band, that tension had been intensified after the couple in question started a new band (2 Foot Flame on Matador) while living in New Zealand. “Maybe it’s just me, but I figure the guitar and the drums are both trying to get the last word, while I felt I needed to elevate my performance to justify the drama,” Smith recently divulged about the show. In 2016, Mecca Normal opened three shows for The Julie Ruin (Bikini Kill members) at which Kathleen Hanna said from the stage: “Their music is still as relevant as it was 25 years ago when I first saw them. It makes me happy that their music is still relevant because they’re doing it better than ever. And their new songs are so fucking great and hilarious.” Jean and David’s incredible creative partnership continues, but its focus is currently visual art. Lester’s graphic novel about the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919 is out now, and Smith has sold over 600 of her ‘$100 USD brand’ paintings on FaceBook. Mecca Normal’s long-running association with the CBC’s Brave New Waves included many interviews as well as songs recorded by Kevin Komoda at DNA Studios in Montréal. Mecca Normal’s Brave New Waves session is released on vinyl, CD, and digital formats. The digipak CD comes with a short interview with Brent Bambury, as well as bonus cuts from the CBC archive.

Mecca Normal ( Jean Smith , David Lester ) started in 1984 with the express purpose of changing the world. Mecca Normal is known as a fore-runner and inspiration to the riot grrrl movement in the 90s. As part of the regional D-I-Y scene at that time, Mecca Normal co-founded the Black Wedge – anti-authoritarian poets and minimalist musicians "setting wild hearts free, spreading the damn difficult word of how to combine poetry with activist resistance culture". At the Black Wedge show in Olympia (1986) Jean and Calvin Johnson met and traded LPs – Mecca Normal's first album (later to be re-issued on ) for the first Beat Happening record. Mecca Normal has released thirteen albums on assorted labels including Matador and . Jean Smith. “Unlike most portraits, especially the ones men tend to paint of women, these were not made to be looked upon. The subjects were equal partners in the looking. You stared at them and they stared back. Smith’s women seemed to have rich interior lives and sometimes wore uniforms to indicate what they were doing before you, the viewer, so rudely interrupted.” – Nick Marino, New York Times Magazine, January 10, 2021. FOLLOW me on FaceBook to see $100 USD paintings for sale daily. I’m currently focused on creating groups 3 or more LARGE (16 x 20″ $600 USD) paintings based on the various “themes” I already paint.

David Lester guitar. One Man’s Anger. This one man’s anger this one man’s rage this one man’s fear – it comes from pain oh ohhhhhh – it comes from pain. No matter what look is on his face what words he choose to say this one man’s anger comes from pain. it can fool you – you can be tricked he will tell you otherwise – otherwise. But as he’s walking down the way you will know his anger comes from pain comes from pain. This one man – is not a bad man, no he’s not a bad man in any way but this one man’s anger and rage. Coming out again is from fear of pain. And in the hollows of the shallows of the dark setting in In a quiet time. A look on his face – just a flicker like a flame will allow you to see his fear is his pain he fears the fear he fears the fear of pain. This one man’s pain and his angry ways the fire versus the flame the fire and the flame credits. Normal History. I collaborate on a weekly illustration, caption and song column for Magnet Magazine with Mecca Normal guitar player David Lester. Normal History is billed as The Art of David Lester, but at many points in the 612 volumes, my captions turn into small essays. Along the same lines (pardon the pun), David’s illustrations aren’t, strictly speaking, “ visually documenting people, places and events from his band’s 36-year run “. We’ve gone way off track on many occasions, unless you consider our band’s history to include pretty much any social justice, labour history, feminist issue or event we care to “document” within the parameters of David’s illustration, a Mecca Normal song (free download from all albums running in sequence) and my “caption” – which we do… consider to be within the realm of our band’s history.

    Read the Following Text and Answer the Questions. the Riot

    Read the following text and answer the questions. The riot grrrl returns Dan Hancox – October 3, 2013 – The National Among the various waves of western feminism and rebellious youth subcultures since the 1960s, riot grrrl stands out as one of the most provocative, but also one of the most thoughtful and deliberative. Its roots were in the punk and new wave music and attitude of the late 1970s and 1980s, but it was not until the early 1990s that the term emerged from the punk scenes of Washington DC and the north-western region of the United 5 States, drawing on a growing youth feminist movement and the DIY youth culture embodied in homemade, cut-and-paste fanzines. References to “revolution girl style now” and “riot girls” mutated into the punk growl not of docile girls but “grrrls”. It was quickly and substantially misunderstood by the very culture they were rebelling against: as bands like Bikini Kill and Bratmobile began to attract attention beyond the punk underground, so did the American 10 media’s excitement about this “new big thing”, in the aftermath of grunge. This excitement quickly manifested itself in a tendency to generalise, fetishise and trivialise the things the riot grrrls were singing about, and conveying through their broader aesthetics: in fanzines, onstage, or otherwise. “There were,” Sharon Cheslow said in the 11-part Riot Grrrl Retrospective documentary, “a lot of very important ideas that I think the mainstream media couldn’t handle, so it was easier to focus on the fact that these were girls who 15 were wearing barrettes in their hair or writing ‘slut’ on their stomach.” Covering issues like misogyny, abuse and patriarchy were considered too contentious or complex for the American mainstream, and instead, the movement was patronised in a way which confirmed much of their original anger.

    Die Radikalen Möglichkeiten Der Lust

    # 2018/45 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2018/45/die-radikalen-moeglichkeiten-der-lust Riot-Grrrl Kathleen Hanna wird 50 Die radikalen Möglichkeiten der Lust Von Vojin Saša Vukadinović Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, The Julie Ruin und vieles mehr: Zum 50. Geburtstag von Kathleen Hanna. Kathleen Hanna hat es stets abgelehnt, als Sprecherin der Riot-Grrrl-Bewegung tituliert zu werden. Diese revolutionierte zu Beginn der neunziger Jahre zunächst den Punk, um später solch einen Einfluss auf die nachfolgende Generation von Mädchen, Frauen und auch Männern auszuüben, dass sie zu Recht als entscheidenden Wegmarke der jüngeren Geschichte des Feminismus gilt. Gleichwohl wird kein Porträt der ehemaligen Sängerin der Band Bikini Kill eine personalisierende Bestandsaufnahme ebenjener Bewegung aussparen können, weil es Hannas persönlicher Einsatz, ihre beharrlichen Anstrengungen und ihre künstlerischen Leistungen waren, die mit zum kollektiven Erfolg beitrugen, der den Namen »Riot Grrrl« trägt. Was 1991 unter dieser Bezeichnung seinen Anfang nahm, begann zunächst als Aufstand gegen die unverhohlene Misogynie und den handfesten Sexismus, der in Punk- und Hardcore-Kreisen üblich war. Frauen, die sich in den Moshpit wagten, wurden oftmals begrapscht. Die verrohten Fraktionen besangen schamlos die Entwertung des weiblichen Geschlechts, womit vordergründig Eltern, Gesellschaft oder Staat provoziert werden sollten. Obwohl diese taktische Brüskierung regelmäßig frauenverachtend wurde, konnte sie jahrelang weitgehend unwidersprochen als trotzige Geste durchgehen.

    An Interview with Sara Landeau, American Music Review, Vol. XLIX

    American Music Review The H. Wiley Hitchcock Institute for Studies in American Music Conservatory of Music, Brooklyn College of the City University of New York Volume XLIX, Issue 2 Spring 2020 Accidental Ideas: An Interview with Sara Landeau Lindsey Eckenroth Back in the pre-COVID times, I sat down with musician, teacher, and The Julie Ruin guitarist Sara Landeau at The Coffee Project in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. We talked composing, performing, teaching, timbre, genre, CBGB, inspirations from everywhere, rockumentaries, and the inexorable challenge of knowing when it’s done. The following is an approximate transcript of our sprawling conversation. *** LE: To start, can you tell me about how you got into playing music, when you decided you wanted to make it your career, and how you made that happen? SL: I thought I was going to go to art school, so I just planned to be an artist. I started playing drums at eighteen and guitar at nineteen. I got very into it … just practiced eight hours a day. Then I went to Columbia University for art history. I also worked at CBGB as a bartender, and my band played there. We were an all-woman band; there were three of us, and we played a lot because we all worked at CBGB. At the same time, I kept studying. I went to Juilliard for a while to study classical guitar, which was great, and I just kept taking courses. Then, starting in 2005, I became a volunteer at the Girls Rock Camp. I met Kathleen [Hanna] there—she was also a volunteer—and we started our band [The Julie Ruin] shortly after.1 Kathleen and I had a lot of mutual friends from the scene, and definitely our idea of feminism was the same, plus we both liked the same music.

The sixth in Medlyn’s ongoing pop star series, Wicked Clown Love is built around the music and culture of hip-hop duo Insane Clown Posse, their devoted fan base the Juggalos, and other forms of male bonding and ritual. Starring Medlyn, Carmine Covelli, Farris Craddock and others, the piece features design by Madeline Best (lighting), Kathleen Hanna (set) and Larry Krone (costume). Performances will take place at 8:00 PM at The Kitchen (512 West 19th Street). Tickets are $15. Wicked Clown Love is Neal Medlyn’s dark specter version of the Insane Clown Posse (ICP) world, incorporating influences ranging from the writings of Mythopoetic Men’s Movement figure Robert Bly, especially his popular book Iron John: A Book About Men and his analysis of Grimm’s fairy tales, to visual design elements that reference dollar store displays, haunted houses, and the TV show COPS. In addition to their infamous clown face painting and the Juggalos, ICP is known for a type of Midwestern, underground, hardcore rap laced with horror film references called horrorcore. Medlyn’s show will feature rap and spoken word, terror and horror, male bonding activities like flashlight wrestling, Faygo showers, clown love and more.

  • Kathleen Hanna

    Kathleen Hanna

    Grace Bonney: 00:10 Hi, and welcome to Good Company, a podcast where we take an honest look at the world of creative business. I'm your host, Grace Bonney. On this week's show, I'm talking with one of my biggest heroes, singer, artist, and activist Kathleen Hanna. Kathleen is the voice behind some of the most influential and inspiring bands, like Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, and the Julie Ruin. She's used her music, her art, and her voice to talk about politics, feminism, women's rights, domestic violence, and so many important issues. Her voice has inspired generations of women and all people, to speak up and speak out about the issues that mean the most to them. I visited Kathleen in her home in California, where she had just celebrated the launch of her newest proJect, Tees 4 Togo, the new T-shirt collection where all proceeds go to the nonprofit organization Peace Sisters, which helps send young girls to school in the West African nation of Togo. Kathleen and I talked about her music career, life in the early days of a Riot Girl, and intersectional feminism. We also talked about the need for nuance, gray areas, and independent thought in both activism and art. And we talk about what and who is inspiring Kathleen to create today. So, let's start the show. So, your musical career is legendary. And I try not to throw that word around. But one of the things I want to start with is, I don't think most people know that you have a history in design.
