So, for your listening dismemberment, I offer you the 3" split CD I put out in 2006.
My band is called Starcrossed Faggots. It's me and my brother Chris making half-brutal, half-hilarious queer power grind. I usually recommend it to fans of The Locust, Gigantic Brain, Discordance Axis, and other artsy-wanky-political grind bands.
The other half is my friend and my brother's old bandmate, Adam, doing a solo project he calls Vomitopsy. His half of the split is more like Mortician, Wadge, Pantalones Abajo Marinero, and other more straight-ahead drum machine based grind projects.
We designed, laid out, recorded, mixed, mastered, and mass produced everything. In fact, I still have copies of the CD if you're interested.
Enjoy! If nothing else, it's good for a laugh. :lulz:

meh. I wouldn't be interested in an explicitly "queer-positive" band any more than I'd be interested in an explicitly "queer-negative" band.
identity politics are identity politics.
that said, the music doesn't totally suck.
The whole point of it was actually to recruit an army of gym-cloned hardbodied fags wearing gasmasks and leather dykes on harleys who would actually go out with this music blasting, and convert people to homosexuality.
IRL, I agree with you about identity politics. In Starcrossed Faggots, though, you would be our first target for conversion.
in that case, I fully support your endeavours. That is the best reason I have ever heard for starting a band.
Enjoying the mix.

A right proper venture. Thespian in it's execution, yet Salazorian in it's spirit.
:thanks:

HAWT!
I demand that someone in the band adopt the stage name "Alphatopper".
Does this mean I have to join the band?
Clearly.
"We're here! We're queer! YOU GONNA GET RAPED!"
:x
I take it back!
Wait-- you're already queer. Get your strap-on and get in line!
I'm pretty sure I'm already chilling in the back of a leather dyke's Harley. Or SIDECAR!
Eve, I appoint you Squad Leader.
Now I'll need you to go to the Army Surplus store and pick up:
*a grenade launcher
*3 tear gas canisters
*200 rounds of rubber bullets
The last two are to be used to sexual purposes, so you may want to disinfect them.
