Transgender Action Block

Transgender Action Block is disbanding. We formed in 2020 as a collective of radical trans activists, fighting for better trans healthcare and to resist the rise of transphobia in the UK. We have organised many protests and mutual aid projects throughout the years, and love everyone who joined us along the journey. We are disbanding because of a lack of internal capacity and the burn out of several of our members in the last few months. We do still have much hope for the future. The gigs will keep running independently as Punk 4 Transsexualism (a separate instagram page will be created), same as other projects such as Trans Front London. With lots of love. See you on the barricades, trannies. Trans liberation now! Fuck pigs and their prisons! DIY your hormones! Free Palestine!

All the lil emo queers in my phone r gonna be weeping proper punkin tears over this one - we got @9_piglet_9 headlining, that’s right 😮‍💨 Between and within the tender points of living in a fascist state and trying your best, music for the post-sodomy-loving comedown and the antifa party conference.

Listened to leather.head while making the most banging pasta sauce I ever made, i could taste it was spiritually charged by leather.head, I think they have some mystical influence and u should come to the gig so we can test the theory, I give them all credit for that sauce Leather.head is a hard-hitting, genre-blending band that merges elements of punk, metal, and hardcore into a relentless sonic assault. With their aggressive riffs, raw vocals, and powerful rhythms, they create an intense, high-energy experience that resonates with fans of heavy music. Leather.head's sound is unapologetically gritty and visceral, capturing the essence of underground rebellion and defiance. Known for their explosive live performances, they are a force to be reckoned with in the alternative music scene, pushing boundaries and challenging conventions at every turn. -> see them at P4T - 2 Feb - New Cross Inn [🎟️ Tickets in bio 🎟️]

Hurdy gurdy giggy jiggy hokey folky punky funky - come and swing your limbs around for goblin band at P4T! Goblin Band formed from sessions of the same name run out of the HobGoblin Music shop in central London, organised by a collection of young queer folk obsessive friends and shop employees looking to forge their own way into folk music. This gave rise to a band of multi-instrumentalists firmly rooted in the folk music of Britain, interpreted via the socialist tradition concerned with folk’s relationship to the history of the working classes, capitalism, and colonialism. Through a fusion of harmony singing, fiddle, squeezebox, hurdy gurdy, recorders and more, Goblin Band deliver a charismatic alternative expression of English traditional culture in a way which is at once riotously joyful and deeply sincere. -> see them at P4T - 2 Feb - New Cross Inn [🎟️ Tickets in bio 🎟️]
