Unbeknownst to some out there, lurking in your neighborhood record store, hiding behind those Martha Wash and Crystal Waters CDs, is a whole new world of queer music. Dubbed by the mainstream press "Homo-core" or "Altema-queer," it's a form of music breaking stereotypes and shaking the gay and lesbian "lie down and be quiet" ideal. From the alleyways and backstreet bars come raucous guitar chords, ranting and turning away from musical tradition. This won't come as a major shock to most people; almost everyone knows someone with a CD by Nirvana or Pearl Jam. But beyond the condescending sex- ual ambiguity of the Pearl Jams and the Suedes are homo (or at least very homo- friendly) bands who don't ignore their gay audiences. Bands such as Sugar, Kitchens of Distinction, Faith No More, Liz Phair, Consolidated and The Breeders have queer Jon Ginoli formed Pansy Division four years ago after he members and talk about gay issues in their became frustrated with the lack of a gay presence in the punk music.
