Personal Best- What You At
- Classic Rock for Tragic Lesbians. I never get bored of this album.

Th'Sheridans - I Don't Wanna Be Dismembered
- Gorgeous melodic 'radical softness as a response to everyday racism and misogyny'. Love the way Adam uses his voice in this track.

Mitski- Bury me at makeout creek
- This album makes me feel too much and I love every lyric.

Lilith Ai- Bare Radical
- Opening track Warrior Queen is an anthem. And Lilith does all her own artwork too!

Happy Accidents- Sprawling
- Brand new album by Happy Accidents, recorded and released DIY. Their music gets better and better.

Girlpool  - What chaos is imaginary
- Their latest album, infectious melodies and beautiful sounds. I love how their voices work together.

Decolonise Fest is a DIY punk festival collectively organised by and for people of colour.
We are the global majority. We will celebrate all the brilliant punx descended (through one or both parents) from the original inhabitants of Africa, the Caribbean, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, Australasia, North America, and the islands of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Ocean.
As we do this, we are rewriting the rules and challenging those labels. We are DIY Diaspora Punx.
We are reasserting our place in punk and want to showcase the amazing, creative and talented contributions punx of colour have made to the punk scene since its inception.
We are loud and proud and demand the space we deserve.
We are uncompromising and strong and will dismantle the white supremacy and patriarchy that infests the punk scene.
We will talk about racism but not in a way that centres whiteness or prioritises the feelings of white people. No white tears.
We are truly putting the threat back into punk again.
We will decolonise punk and make it a space for our siblings.
We will not tolerate racism, ageism, sexism, transphobia, classism, ableism, homophobia or fatphobia.
This is a celebratory event. White allies are welcome but remember this event will focus on people of colour.
Decolonising our past to decolonise our future.
