🎤🎸Are you a punk music fan? Then check out these artists who have your back when it comes to AI facial recognition surveillance! @ajjtheband.bsky.social @ryancassata.bsky.social Tag your favorite punk band below & ask them to sign our pledge to boycott venues using this invasive surveillance!

The image features a dynamic scene from a punk concert, with vibrant, colorful lighting and a lively audience. In the foreground, a performer with long, wavy hair is passionately singing into a microphone. The individual is wearing a short-sleeved shirt with visible tattoos on their arms. Surrounding them are several enthusiastic fans, some with their hands raised and showing expressions of excitement. The background displays blurred figures, enhancing the concert atmosphere. The image is overlaid with bold text in contrasting colors that makes strong statements about facial recognition technology and its perceived conflict with punk culture. The overall color palette includes striking blues, pinks, and purples, creating an energetic and intense visual effect.

The image is divided into two sections featuring two different music acts. The top portion showcases the group "SOJI." It displays five individuals arranged in an urban setting, with a wooden structure resembling a bed in the background. The group poses with varying expressions, each member dressed in edgy street fashion, including leather jackets and distressed clothing. The color palette is primarily composed of earthy tones, with vivid highlights in their hair and accessories. The bottom section features the band "AJJ," performing live on stage in a dimly lit venue. Here, four musicians are engaged in playing instruments, with one on guitar, another on the upright bass, and two others appearing to be vocalists. The backdrop is a deep red curtain, and the audience in front is lively and engaged, depicting a concert atmosphere. Bright stage lights illuminate the performers, creating a warm ambiance against the darker surroundings.

It's really confusing when you want to dance and cry at the same time to this bop. And that about summarizes my Queer experience if anything does: confusion, dancing, crying.

BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS is out now. 🪩🕺 Inspired by Club Q. A song asking why we can’t just dance, just be free. A plea for peace & a call to resist. They want us scared. This is my answer. KEEP DANCING. 💥 feat. @jezmakesmusic #TransDayOfVisibility #DiscoPunk pocp.co/blood-is-on-...

Protest music lives! It might not sound like you want it to. It might make you feel uncomfortable. But it's here and it matters. You've heard about the boomers in the mix but young artists are absolutely in the fight. Here are a few new protest tunes. I'll update this thread as they drop ✌️
