Black history month isn’t just about celebrating the people we know, but uplifting the people whom we might not know.
This was truly a labor of love as I spent that past few weeks learning about Tina Bell’s life and the impact she and BAM BAM in general had on the Seattle grunge scene.
I would love it if you read about her story and share this with others who are passionate about music and black history, I want her to be just as much of a household name as Kurt Cobain.
Also please listen to their album! Its incredible!
Happy Black History Month to all my Black grunge guys gals and pals!!!! We were always here!!!

I thought about this song a lot when I was younger. All these important people and events- some that disappeared into the sands of time- others that changed the world forever. So much has happened in the span of the last 34 years- we felt like a little system update might be fun. Hope you like our take on it…
We Didn’t Start The Fire is out everywhere now. Pre-order the 7” (limited to 5000 copies).

Today in #BlackHistory2024 I honor Poly Styrene, a Black woman who is the lead singer of punk rock pioneers X-Ray Spex.
Remember, punk rock and rock n roll in general was started by Black people.
Remember, Black womanhood is punk rock. Our survival is pure rebellion at its core.
