This book says āA Memoir in Verseā on its cover but it DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU DONāT āGETā POETRY OR HATE IT EVEN. This book will change your mind. This is the funniest most fucked up book you will ever be lucky enough to read. Seriously do yourself a favor and get it because I canāt describe seeing a sunset while having an orgasm anymore than I can describe this book.

Brutal. Honest. Unflinching. Ugly.
You canāt look away, but there is love beneath it all.
Youāll either read this in a scorching mad dash or slow it down for more of a controlled burn, either way you will come away changed.

š„I would say this is super listenable Political Punk, but I hate the idea that great bands with normal ideas like equality for everyone are āpoliticalāĀ when really itās everyone else who is being boring as hell while upholding the status quo. Lambrini Girls are way too musically wild and way too fun to be tied down to all these words anyways. Even better lyrics than Idles and I really like Idles. I know itās not a competition but if it wasā¦.Take a deep dive into their interviews on YOUTUBE. You will not regret it.

šŖ©This ten song record from 2023 is already an underground classic. Is it surfy new wave punk? Punky Disco? Whatever it is ITāS FUCKING GREAT. Lira Mondal is the vocalist I want to hear everyday singing every song. The obvious musical comparison might be Pylon, but thereās also a poppy Romeo Void vibe that Iām fully addicted to. The best record of this year and it came out last year! hahaha!

šøLike a great musical compilation that features a ton of different styles. From fiction by Honeychild Coleman and Hanif Abdurraqib to several great Roundtable Discussions called āNo Whites on the MicāĀ that cover topics like how to start a DIY collective, whatās happening in the punk scene NOW and self care. I came for the great writing and the bands but came back again to fully enjoy the amazing comics and photos. This is one of those must have books like āBanned in DCā and āShotgun Seamstress; The Complete Zine Collectionā.
