Unsanitary Napkin - TERF War

  


  Unsanitary Napkin are an anarcho punk trio from Wellington, New Zealand, who went down very well when I featured them a couple of years ago (https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2019/10/unsanitary-napkin-dildo-baggins.html).

  They return today with one of the two tracks that they've posted which are from an upcoming new album titled All Billionaires Are Bastards. I played the other track, Speak Up For Women, You Don't Speak For Me, on this week's show. You can find them both streaming, name your price, here :   https://unsanitarynapkin.bandcamp.com/album/terf-war

  For those that don't know, TERF stands for Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminist and it's a term that  refers to people with trans-exclusionary views who may have no involvement with radical feminism. The song you'll find below is "in solidarity with our trans and gender-diverse whānau and in solidarity with the trailblazing New Zealand weightlifter, Laurel Hubbard." You can find more of the band's views on transphobia and transmisogyny on their Bandcamp page. 

  All proceeds from this release will be donated to Gender Minorities Aotearoa. GMA are a nationwide transgender organisation in Aotearoa New Zealand, run by and for transgender people; including binary and non-binary, intersex, and irawhiti takatāpui. Find them at genderminorities.com

  This is TERF War... 

Trans Exclusionary Radical Fuckwit! Trans-misogynist racist bullshit! We won’t adopt your euphemisms We don’t accept your overt bigotry Your stance is not a weapon against, but a tool of the fucking patriarchy You will conspire with fascists When their hate is aligned with yours Can’t you see you’re a fascist like them Callous to the fucking core It’s not a slur, You’re a TERF, that’s what you are Trans Exclusionary Radical Fascist!

Unsanitary Napkin - Dildo Baggins



  We go back Down Under today but this time we're getting our punk rock kicks from New Zealand rather than Australia...

  Unsanitary Napkin are a ferocious anarcho punk trio from Wellington who've been kicking up a racket since 2015 and feature a line up of B. Michael Knight (drums/backing vocals), Hannah Salmon (vocals/guitar) and Rupert Hunter (bass/backing vocals). They've released an album called Patriotic Grooves and a few singles/eps and are now back with a cracking split album with Hamilton hardcore act Contenders. 5 tracks by Unsanitary Napkin, 4 by Contenders, it's available on cassette or as a name your price download :  https://unsanitarynapkin.bandcamp.com/album/contenders-unsanitary-napkin-split

  Back in 2012, in Waitangi, a female protester named Josie Butler threw a dildo at economic development minister Steven Joyce, hitting him in the face. She was heard shouting "that's for raping our sovereignty." 7 years on and that incident has been documented as the opening track on the split. It's called Dildo Baggins...

National hero
Restoring faith
With that dildo

Steven Joyce
You’ve been deceiving
Here’s comeuppance
For your thieving

Josie’s here
To stand and fight
That throbbing phallus
Taking flight

You should feel shame
Ol’ dildo face
That toxic deal
Is a disgrace

Dildo!

In the!

Face!

Dildo Baggins

Motivation perfect
Execution flawless
You join the ranks
Of Lucy Lawless

DILDO IN THE FACE!!!!
