Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 21/09/2026I just found a demo track called “Behind Enemy Lines” from the beginning of last year. It has basically the same lyrics as the final song, but basically everything else is different. It’s actually kind of cool, but I don’t remember it at all. Maybe I can turn it into something new. 000

Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 20/06/2026Years ago, troll said of one of my songs, “this woman cannot sing”. As a trans woman, and given that he was doing his best to hurt me, I found that enormously affirming. (Also, to be fair, it wasn’t exactly my best performance and wouldn’t pass QC these days.) 010
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 16/06/2026Despite everything that’s going on, people continue to transition, to find themselves, and, in so doing, to find great joy. That seems like something to celebrate, and the perfect note to end the album on. 000
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 16/06/2026I regularly have the opportunity to hear baby trans people talk about those early milestones. Some are common and others are unique, but the happiness is genuine and infectious. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 16/06/2026As I collected some thoughts about trans joy, it quickly became obvious that I wanted to focus on the early parts of transition. Transitioning is confusing and scary, but it’s full of wonderful, joyful moments too. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 16/06/2026I started writing the song that became Fly Free (For The Hatchlings) by creating a new document and writing “Positive Song” at the top of the page. There are some pretty obvious reasons why all the other songs on the album are angsty and angry, but I wanted to have at least one with a lighter mood. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 15/06/2026Then, even though I wrote it, it took quite a bit of practice to actually sing it. My songs often have a lot of words, but they don’t usually go past quite that quickly. 000
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 15/06/2026No Surrender was one of those songs where verse two was hard to write. The first verse came really easily, but a second one matching the same rhythm was a bit more of a challenge. 110
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 14/06/2026Writing in unusual time signatures can be tricky and I’m kind of proud that I got it to work well enough on “I’m Still Here” that I think a lot of people don’t really notice. 000
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 14/06/2026A lot of the songs on Delineation take a bit of a defiant tone, but there was something about repeating the phrase “I’m Still Here” that appealed to me. The weird little piano part in 7/8 time arrived separately, but when I had the idea to put the two together, it just seemed to work. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 13/06/2026I didn’t want to read the quotes myself because I wanted it to be obvious that it wasn’t my voice and therefore that they aren’t my words. I think my friends did a wonderful job and their performances really elevated the track, as well as sparking some new ideas. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 13/06/2026The Age of Sin is essentially an instrumental track, but I built it around a selection of spoken quotes. Each quote was taken from either an interview with one of the last few popes, or from a written document published by the Roman Catholic Church, and read by one of my trans friends. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 13/06/2026The UK is a largely secular country, but conservative Christianity has a disproportionate influence on politics, from bishops in the House of Lords to American evangelicals funding lawfare against trans rights and other “culture wars”. 110
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 12/06/2026I experimented with building up the music to something bigger and heavier, but ultimately I decided that the gentler, more restrained arrangement suited it better. 000
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 12/06/2026When I first wrote the lyrics to Existence I thought they were too bleak. I put them aside for a couple of months, but when I came back to them I realised that actually, while they are about a bleak situation, they are hopeful and comforting. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 12/06/2026There are lots of trans people with health problems or disability, and many who can’t fight, or aren’t able to do as much as they want. Some of them do far more than they realise, by inspiring others, but as a minimum, just living as a trans person is a revolutionary act in the UK. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 12/06/2026A friend talked about feeling guilty because, being largely housebound, she felt insulated from the effects of segregation guidance. Another friend was upset because they didn’t have the spoons to go to a protest. A third said she only found the courage to go because of the first friend. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 10/06/2026Cross The Line was the first song on the first Carmine Rebellion EP, Manifesto. I’ve always liked the song, and since it fitted the theme of this album, it seemed like a good time to revisit it. 011
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 08/06/2026I wanted to say that trans people really aren’t that different to cis people. If there weren’t well-financed, genital-obsessed bigots trying to erase us from society, we’d just be living our lives and dealing with similar problems to everyone else. When you get down to it, I’m Just Another Human. 020
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 07/06/2026I wrote Fight Fire With Fire after I’d written some of the more downbeat songs on the album. I love Distressed Heart and Existence, but I wanted to make sure the album had plenty of loud songs too, so I deliberately set out to write something a bit more shouty. It’s not subtle, but it was fun. 010

Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 06/06/2026The chat on a YouTube stream has a bit of lag, so there was nothing for about 20 seconds. Then a flurry of supportive messages scrolled past. It was a really lovely moment. Joe (who runs Home Studio Corner) sent me a wonderful message after the stream ended, finishing “thanks for singing the truth” 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 06/06/2026It was played (in a very raw form) in the listening party at the end of the month and got a positive response. One listener commented “I love this song, but I hate whoever inspired it,” so I told them who inspired it: “it’s about trans rights”. 100
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 06/06/2026I love this song and I’m proud of it - it just doesn’t feel like metal compilation material, so I decided it had to go on the album instead. The song was also my submission for a songwriting challenge over at Home Studio Corner VIP back in April. 210
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 06/06/2026Shredding My Soul wasn’t going to be on the album. I’d already worked out the track listing when I wrote it, intending it to be for @rubyrockatansky.bsky.social’s trans metal compilation (see below). Except that what I ended up writing felt wrong for a metal compilation. 120
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 05/06/2026I’m delighted and very grateful to see Delineation reviewed in @etherdiver.bsky.social’s Other People’s Music article this week.

Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 05/06/2026Next up: Phantasm. It’s basically about propaganda, and the way so many people these days are driven to hate based on what see in the media, over the evidence of their own experience. Since I work in the media (although not in news) it always feels a bit personal. 021

Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 02/06/2026I've been writing lyrics first a lot in the last couple of years, and it makes sense with this album since I had a lot of things I wanted to say. This song ended up with a lot of lyrical sections that had different lengths and structures, which led fairly naturally to the music doing the same thing. 000
Carmine Rebellion @carminerebellion.uk · 02/06/2026The word "Delineation" obviously sounds like a Carmine Rebellion album/EP title. I think I made a note of it around the time of the FWS ruling last year, and I'd probably been staring at it a few weeks before it expanded into a chorus, and from there, into a song. 110
