Queercore(orhomocore) is a cultural/social movement that began in the mid-1980s as an offshoot of thepunk subcultureand a music genre that comes frompunk rock.[1]It is distinguished by its discontent with society in general, and specifically society's disapproval of theLGBT community.[2]Queercore expresses itself in aDIYstyle through magazines, music, writing and film.

As amusic genre,it may be distinguished by lyrics exploring themes of prejudice and dealing with issues such assexual identity,[3]gender identityand the rights of the individual; more generally, queercore bands offer a critique of society endemic to their position within it, sometimes in a light-hearted way, sometimes seriously. Musically, many queercore bands originated in thepunkscene but theindustrial music culturehas been influential as well. Queercore groups encompass many genres such ashardcore punk,electropunk,indie rock,power pop,no wave,noise,experimental,industrialand others.

History

[edit]

Origins

[edit]

In the early 1980s, several U.S.hardcorebands wrote queer-themed songs, and Gary Floyd of theDicksalong withRandy TurnerofBig Boyswere notable in both beingopenly gayand outspoken gay men. In England, in theanarcho-punkscene,Andy MartinofThe Apostleswas equally forthright. Politically motivatedU.S.bands such asMDCand7 Secondsalso introduced anti-homophobia messages into their songs at this time, while theNip Driversincluded a song titled "Quentin", dedicated toQuentin Crisp,in their repertoire.

The zineJ.D.s,created byG.B. JonesandBruce LaBruce,is widely acknowledged as being the zine which launched the movement. "J.D.sis seen by many to be the catalyst that pushed the queercore scene into existence ", writes Amy Spencer inDIY: The Rise of Lo-Fi Culture.[4]Emerging out of theanarchistscene, at first the editors ofJ.D.shad chosen the appellation "homocore" to describe the movement but replaced the wordhomowithqueerto better reflect the diversity of those involved, as well as to disassociate themselves completely from the confines of gay and lesbian orthodoxy.[5][6]

The first issue was released in 1985, with a manifesto entitled "Don't Be Gay" published in thefanzineMaximum RocknRollfollowing soon after; inspiring, among many other zines,Holy Titclamps,edited by Larry-bob,HomocorebyTom JenningsandDeke Nihilson,[3]Donna Dresch'sChainsaw,andOutpunkby Matt Wobensmith, these last two later functioning as music labels. These zines, and the movement, are characterised by an alternative to the self-imposed ghettoization of orthodox gay men and lesbians; sexual and gender diversity in opposition to the segregation practiced by the mainstream gay community; a dissatisfaction with aconsumeristculture, proposing aDIYethos in its place in order to create a culture of its own; and opposition to oppressive religious tenets and political repression.

1990s

[edit]

In 1990, theJ.D.seditors released the first queercore compilation,J.D.s Top Ten Homocore Hit Parade Tape,acassettewhich included bands from Canada, such asFifth Column,Big Man,and Bomb from the U.S.; from England,The Apostles,Academy 23 and No Brain Cell; and, from New Zealand, Gorse.[7]

During the period from the late 1980s to the early 1990s, many of thepunk rockbands involved in queercore were not necessarily queer but their ethics were motivation for supporting this movement. Other bands, such asLos Crudosand Go!, had one outspoken member who was homosexual.

Other early queercore bands includedAnti-Scrunti Faction,who appeared inJ.D.s,and Comrades In Arms,Homocoreeditor Deke Nihilson's band. Shortly after the release of the tapeJ.D.sceased publication and a new crop of zines arose, such asJane and Frankieby Klaus and Jena von Brücker,ShrimpbyVaginal DavisandFanoramaby REB. The zine BIMBOX published statements such as "You are entering a gay and lesbian-free zone...Effective immediately, BIMBOX is at war against lesbians and gays. A war in which modern queer boys and girls are united against the prehistoric thinking and demented self-serving politics of the above-mentioned scum."[2]

The first queer zine gathering occurred at this time; "Spew", held inChicagoin 1991, offered an opportunity for all those involved in the scene to meet. Although organizer Steve LaFreniere was stabbed outside the venue at the end of the night, he quickly recovered and the event was deemed a success.[8]Spew 2 took place inLos Angelesin 1992,[9]and Spew III inTorontoin 1993. These Spew events also included musical performances by queercore bands.

Among the better-known bands from the early 1990s areFifth Column;God Is My Co-Pilot;Pansy Division;Pedro, Muriel and Esther (PME);Sister George;[10]Team Dresch;Tribe 8;andMukilteo Fairies.As these bands gained popularity and awareness of the movement grew, zines began appearing from around the world;The Burning Timesfrom Australia, andP.M.S.from the UK are examples.

InChicago,Mark Freitas and Joanna Brown organized a monthly "Homocore" night that featured queercore bands performing live, offering a stable venue for the scene to proliferate; most of the bands mentioned played atHomocore Chicago.As well, as Amy Spencer notes inDIY: The Rise of Lo-Fi Culture,"Through Homocore events, they aimed to create a space for men and women to be together, as opposed to the sense of gender segregation which was the norm in mainstream gay culture – They attacked the idea that due to your sexuality you should be offered only one choice of social scene..."[4]

In 1992 Matt Wobensmith's zineOutpunkalso became a record label, and began to release its own queercore compilations, singles, and albums, and was crucial to the development of queercore. The first recordings by Tribe 8 and Pansy Division were released by the label. Some of the bands appearing later in the mid-1990s on the label includeSta-Prest,Cypher in the Snowand Behead the Prophet, No Lord Shall Live. It was also at this time in the early 1990s thatRiot Grrrlemerged. Both groups deviated from the oppressive homonormative tendencies.[11]"In many ways the angry- girl genre owes its existence to punk homocore 'zines..." writes Emily White inRock She Wrote.It follows that many of the participants, their zines, and bands likeExcuse 17were involved in both movements.[12]Along with Outpunk,independent record labelssuch asAlternative Tentacles,K Records,Kill Rock Stars,Lookout! Records,Yoyo Recordings andCandy Ass Recordsalso supported and released material by queercore artists but in the mid to late 1990s several other small labels, alongside Outpunk, sprung up solely devoted to queercore.

Donna Dresch's zineChainsawbecame a record label as well, and began to release recordings by newer bands such asThe Need,The Third SexandLongstocking.Heartcore Records is another label, whose bands have includedThe Little Deaths,Addicted2Fiction, Crowns On 45 and Ninja Death Squad. These bands, many of whom are no longer together, constituted the 'second wave' of queercore bands which also included IAMLoved, Subtonix,Best Revenge,prettypony, and Fagatron from the U.S., Skinjobs from Canada and, from Italy, Pussy Face. Of these early queercore labels, Chainsaw and Heartcore are still active and are still releasing new material.

By the mid-1990s, zines in the U.S., such asMarilyn Medusa,and in Canada,Scott Treleaven'sThis Is The Salivation Army,began to link queercore withPaganism;[5]at the same time, other strands in queercore began to link themselves with Riot Grrrl, and still others withanarchism.Mainstream media coverage intensified when Pansy Division toured the U.S. withGreen Day(whose lead singer,Billie Joe Armstrong,is openly bisexual).[3]In 1996 inSan Francisco,the Dirtybird 96 Queercore Festival presaged other queer music gatherings which occurred in the following decade.[13]In the late 1990s and early 2000s,DUMBAprovided an ongoing venue inNew York Cityfor queercore bands,[14]continuing in the path of Homocore Chicago and leading the way for other, similar clubs to come in the 2000s.

2000s

[edit]

In the 2000s, queercore club nights and events continued to take place throughout Europe and North America. In Los Angeles' Silver Lake neighbourhood an underground queer music scene was in existence at the monthly queercore club called "The Freak Show" hosted by the leather bar The Gauntlet II for three years, where bands such asBest Revenge,IAMLoved, and Nick Name and The Normals (aka Kent James) played regularly. In Toronto, the queercore scene thrived for a number of years at the monthly club Vazaleen, or Club V, run byWill Munro,which featured bands from across the U.S. and Canada, including such legendary performers asJayne County.The festival Queer Panic was organized by Gordon Gordon of the zine Teen Fag inSeattle, Washingtonin June 2000. Scutterfest was organized by Rudy Bleu of the zineScutterinLos Angeles, Californiain 2001, 2002, and 2003.[15]The Bent Festival was held in Seattle in 2002 and 2003.

The festivalHomo-a-go-gowas held the summers of 2002, 2004 and 2006 inOlympia, Washington,featuring queer films, zines, performance and musical groups during the week-long event; in 2009 the festival was held in San Francisco.[16][17]

Queeruption,which takes place in a different city each year, has been hosted by Berlin, Rome, New York and London in the past. In 2004 and 2005, a group of queercore bands toured throughout the U.S.; the tour was calledQueercore Blitzand was yet another way to connect the like-minded. Queer groups active in the UK included Edinburgh QueerMutiny, Queers Without Borders, Queer Mutiny North, Cardiff Queer Mutiny and Queer Mutiny Brighton. A number of these are organised as Queer Mutiny groups.

In 2002,Agitprop! Recordsreleased a compilation titledStand Up & Fucking Fight For It,which collected new music from queercore bands. It was the first release from the label, which features many queercore acts in its roster. 16 records is a queercore label that releases albums by such Pacific Northwest bands as Shemo, The Haggard, andSwan Island,as well as the Brazilian band Dominatrix. Other new labels include Queer Control, which features the bands Pariah Piranha, Tough Tough Skin, Nancy Fullforce, Once A Pawn, and others.

In September 2005,Homocore: The Loud and Raucous Rise of Queer Rockby David Ciminelli and Ken Knox was published by Alyson Books. It traced the history of the movement in the 1990s in the United States, and included interviews with some of the contemporary musicians who have been inspired by it. Queercore became an increasingly international phenomenon in the early 2000s, with bands such as Low End Models, Triple Creme from NYC, and Rhythm King And Her Friends fromGermany,Kids Like Us out ofNorwayandShe Devils,fromArgentina.From Toronto, Canada cameKids on TV,whose industrial background offered a new, more electronic direction for queercore. Similar electronic instrumentation was explored byLesbians on EcstasyfromMontreal.Canada also birthedThe Hidden Cameras,ananti-folkband from Toronto[5]and Eekum Seekum, a queercore band from Halifax.

The 2000s also brought a new crop of bands to prominence in theUnited States.The bandLimp Wristrepresent a contemporary breed ofhardcore punk.Butch Vs Femme, formed in 2004, are ariot grrrlinspired indie punk keyboard and drums duo originally from the small town ofDixon, California,saturated with politically powered lyrics surrounding queer issues.Gravy Train!!!!,a raucouselectropopband fromOakland,California,known for their sexually explicit lyrics and onstage antics, has released several albums on Kill Rock Stars label. One offshoot of Gravy Train!!!!,Hunx and His Punx,are apower popact more indebted to girl groups and 1960sgarage rock.Three Dollar Bill from Chicago are an eclectic band whose sound ranges from punk toindie rockto metal. Three Dollar Puta was a synth punk queer core band from Los Angeles. Also citing metal as an inspiration are ASSACRE, a one man fantasy metal/spazz noise act by artistBen AquafromAustin, Texas,andGay for Johnny Depp,a hardcore band fromNew York City.

The Shondes,a four piece rock band fromBrooklyncombine riot grrrl punk with classical and traditional Jewish music influences; similarly,Schmekel,an all-transgender, all-JewishBrooklynband combines punk rock withklezmer.[18]The Homewreckers are ariot grrrl/ pop-punk band, also based in Brooklyn.Your Heart Breaksare a multi-instrumental low-fi band with a fluctuating line-up based in Seattle, Washington. Along with these new bands, queercore pioneers Team Dresch reunited in the mid-2000s for several tours. The underground Chicago DIY punk scene remains a safe haven for queercore artists to flourish and share their art. FED UP fest is a yearly three-day festival of music, zines, and workshops which celebrate queer culture in the punk community. It also serves as a benefit project for PROJECT FIERCE CHICAGO which aims to reduce the number of LGBTQ youth who are homeless through transitional housing and support services.[19]

In theUKthere was a burgeoning queercore scene, fuelled by aforementioned groups such as Queer Mutiny, Homocrime, and record labels such as Local Kid arranging shows and releasing records by bands and artists such as Corey Orbison,Sleeping States,Drunk Granny, Little Paper Squares, Husbands, Fake Tan and Lianne Hall. These bands all combine elements of the DIY culture that spurred queercore and the punk sensibility, as seen in two of Manchester's offerings, the lesbian disco-punk band Vile Vile Creatures and solo lo-fi electro-punk-popsterSte McCabe(whose previous band Stephen Nancy were considered a major reference for UK queercore in the early 2000s). Music historian Julia Downes additionally identified the following artists and bands in an overview of UK queercore music circa 2003-2009: Candy Panic Attack, Chaps,Flamingo 50,Headfall, hooker [now LIINES], Hotpants Romance, Humousexual, Lake Me, Lesbo Pig, Robin Osterley,Roseanne Barr,Sad Shields, Sailor Tongue, Scragfight, The Battys, the Jelas, the Rayographs,Trash Kit,Truly Kaput, Valerie andWetdog.[20]Members of these bands later played inElectrelane,Shopping,Dream Nailsand others.

Club-wise, Psycho:Drama in Bristol was a passionate advocate of queercore and maintained a presence for alternative queer youth in the city for over 4 years. Collectives in the North West of England such as Manifesta, and Lola and the Cartwheels, promoted and organised alternative queer events whilst simultaneously having a strong feminist identity.

2010s

[edit]

In the UK, record labelTuff Enuff Recordswas formed in 2012 fromBrighton"queer/riot grrrl/DIY"[21]club nightRiots Not Dietsand focused on releases by queer-identifying bands.[22]Elsewhere, events such asPussy Whipped(Manchester,and later,Edinburgh) andQueer Riot(London) provided a space for like-minded artists,[23][24][25]and since 2015, annual festivalsQueer We Go(aka Queerfest) andBentfesthave been organised inLeeds[26]andLondon.[27]Bands in thepost-punk,riot grrrlandindiepopgenres continue to be associated with queercore including Dazey and the Scouts,Shopping,Wolf Girl,Martha,ONSIND,Colour Me Wednesdayand Guttfull.[28][29][30][31]

In the US, the 2017 bookQueercore: Queer Punk Media Subcultureby Curran Nault[32]brought renewed attention to queercore via a historical overview and theoretical exploration of the homology[vague]between queer theory/practice[vague]and punk theory/practice[vague]at the heart of queercore mediamaking. Retrospective documentaryQueercore: How to Punk a Revolution,directed byYony Leyser[33]was released the same year. An oral history put together from the transcripts of the film as well as additional interviews calledQueercore: How to Punk a Revolution: An Oral Historyby Liam Warfield, Walter Crasshole and Leyser was released byPM Pressin 2021.[34]

Film

[edit]

Filmmakers such asKenneth Anger,Ron Rice,Jack Smith,earlyAndy Warholand earlyJohn Waters,Vivienne Dickand the aforementionedDerek Jarmanwere influential in their depictions of queer subcultures. In 1990 the editors ofJ.D.sbegan presentingJ.D.smovie nights in various cities showing films such as Bruce LaBruce'sBoy, GirlandBruce and Pepper Wayne Gacy's Home Movies,and G.B. Jones'The Troublemakers;after the demise ofJ.D.s,each made films exploring the queercore milieu; LaBruce released the feature lengthNo Skin Off My Assin 1991; G.B. Jones'The Troublemakerswas released in 1990, followed byThe Yo-Yo Gangin 1992. In 1996,J.D.scontributorAnonymous Boycompleted the first animated queercore film,Green Pubes.

Documentary films about queercore include the 1996 releasesShe's Real, Worse Than QueerbyLucy ThaneandQueercore: A Punk-u-mentarybyScott Treleaven.Gay Shame '98by Scott Berry documents the firstGay shameevent.Tracy Flannigan'sRise Above: A Tribe 8 Documentarywas released in 2003, andPansy Division: Life In A Gay Rock Bandby Michael Carmona debuted in 2008, both films playing regularly at film festivals around the world.

2003 saw the premiere of theno budgetcomedyMalaqueerche: Queer Punk Rock Showby Sarah Adorable (of Scream Club) and Devon Devine, which brought the third wave of queercore to the screen. In 2008, G.B. Jones released the feature filmThe Lollipop Generation,featuring many of the participants in the queercore scene, including Jena von Brücker,Mark Ewert,Vaginal Davis,Jane Danger of Three Dollar Bill,Jen Smith,Joel Gibb,Anonymous Boy,Scott Treleavenand Gary Fembot ofSta-Prest,with music byThe Hidden Cameras,Anonymous Boy and the Abominations, Bunny and the Lakers, Jane Danger, Swishin' Duds and Mariae Nascenti. All these films impacted the scene and broadened the scope of queercore to include film as another of its mediums of expression.

Lynn Breedlove(Tribe 8, writer), Matt Wobensmith (Outpunk Zine and Label, Queercorps Label), Jody Bleyle (Candy-Ass Records, Team Dresch, Hazel), The Psychic Sluts (Queer Performance Group), Wendy-O Matic (spoken word artist, writer), Laura Litter (Fabulous Disaster), Mia d´Bruzzi (Mudwimin, Fabulous Disaster) and Anna Joy (Blatz, Cyper in the Snow, The Gru´ps, writer) were interviewed in the documentaryStep Up and Be Vocal - Interviews zu Queer Punk und Feminismus in San Francisco,a DIY-documentary made by German filmmakers Uta Busch and Sandra Ortmann in 2001.

2016 saw the premiere of the queer punk rock musicalSpidarlingsdirected by Selene Kapsaski.[35]The film was released in 2017 byTroma Entertainment.[36]

Zines

[edit]

As with punk and hardcore, queercore culture existed outside of the mainstream, so amateur-produced and inexpensively photocopiedzineswere crucial to its development and to communication between members of the subculture.[4]Hundreds of zines formed an intercontinental network that enabled queercore to spread and allow those in smaller, more repressive communities to participate and learn about bands, labels and scene activists. TheDIYattitude of punk was integral to queercore as well.[37][8]

In the 1990s, as the availability of theinternetincreased, many queercore zines could be found online as well as in print. Queercore forums and chatrooms, such asQueerPunks,started up. TheQueer Zine Archive Projectis an internet database of scanned queer zines that continues to grow.[38]All these developments allowed queercore to become a self-sustaining and self-determined subculture, expressing itself through a variety of mediums independent of the straight and gay establishment.
