//TEARDRINKER (NL)In a world that seems to only get more brutish, more despondent and more ruthless. Where marginalized and downtrodden peoples are abused, exploited and dehumanized more and more, and in the face of a total collapse of natural systems and biodiversity, there seem to only be three options left: apathy, assimilation or rebellion. Teardrinker is a band that in style and in substance chooses the third. Composed of members of varying local acts (NûH, Lijkschouwer, Void Diver) and headed by Kim Hoorweg, the ever-pugnacious frontperson of VULVA they play songs of revolt. Their music proves that subversion comes in many flavours: rage and desperation, naturally, but also hope and belligerent joy.
Musically their songs can be described as a mix of post-hardcore, sludge and screamo. As the old saying goes: “If you stand for nothing, you’ll fall for anything”. So Teardrinker wears their conviction on their sleeve. Their music speaks truth to power. with themes like overcoming personal trauma, the beauty and legitimacy of the trans experience and justice and liberation for dispraised and disregarded people everywhere.
“No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us." - Marsha P. Johnson
