🎧 Track of the Week 🎧 Our Track of the Week is 'S 🎧 Track of the Week 🎧Our Track of the Week is 'Sex Symbol', the spiky synth-lead, dance-punk floor filler from North West-based indie art punk trio @gensdegenerates. The track sees them playfully dissect society’s objectification and fetishisation of the female body and is taken from their new announced second album, Earthly Delights, which is out January 8, 2027 via @marshallrecords. “People make strange assumptions about my personality and morality based on my body.” states vocalist Genevieve Glynn-Reeves on the latest single. “They think because I’m overtly feminine and curvy that I must be flirtatious or highly sexual when in reality it’s them who are sexualising something that I have no control over. I can wear the same exact outfit as a very slender person and be perceived totally differently in it. I’m pointing out the hypocrisy and taking a tongue in cheek look at what society expects me to be.”Expanding on the song’s narrative, Glynn-Reeves also reflects on the ways marginalised bodies are simultaneously stigmatised and fetishised.“There is also a point to be made about the fetishisation of oppressed bodies. I’m speaking from my own experience with fatphobia where the same traits that I’m shamed for societally I am also fetishised for. Fatphobia is rooted in racism and women of colour are constantly fetishised by the same society that is structured around their oppression. I also know that porn searches for categories that feature older women actually outweigh those for younger women who fit more neatly into the traditional male gaze. Yet, as women age, they are told their value is depreciating. I have never met a woman who has gotten less interesting and potent as she got older honestly. I can’t speak to all of these experiences personally and chose to focus very much on my own lived experience but I hope it can resonate widely nonetheless. This song is both an analysis of this phenomenon, and a rejection of it.”#newmusic #trackoftheweek #songoftheweek #musicblog #musicblogger

Pride Month may be coming to an end, but Pride its Pride Month may be coming to an end, but Pride itself isn't confined to 30 days on a calendar.I've always felt like a bit of an outsider in one way or another, and perhaps that's why I've always admired the LGBTQ+ community so deeply: the courage to live authentically, loudly, proudly and unapologetically in a world that doesn't always make that easy.While I don't identify as queer myself, I am, and always will be, an ally.At She Makes Music, Pride isn't just something we celebrate in June. It's woven into everything this platform stands for: championing diverse voices, amplifying underrepresented artists, and creating space for everyone to be seen and heard. While representation for queer artists in music has come a long way, there is still so much further to go.So this is just a reminder that Pride doesn't end when the month does. Pride is every day. Pride is forever. 🏳️‍🌈🖤Thank you to every LGBTQ+ artist who continues to create, inspire, challenge, and exist authentically. She Makes Music will always be cheering you on.#pridemonth #happypride #prideiseveryday #pride2026
