wednesdays we wear black: Live & Latest News Updates : Vimarsana.com
âI feel like this is the most exciting time I have experienced in rock and metal in a long time,â says the Kerrang Radio presenter Sophie K, who founded the podcast On Wednesdays We Wear Black (OWWWB) in order to âcreate a space that felt safe for people who arenât normally representedâ in alt-culture. Alongside co-presenters Metal Hammer journalist and TikTok personality Yasmine Summan and radio presenter and musician Alyx Holcombe, she delivers the kind of frank and hilarious conversations that happen between female and non-binary metal fans behind closed doors.
âItâs always been this idea in alternative [music] that [it] is a white thing,â says Summan. âIn beauty, in music, in the culture. Itâs always been that way and no oneâs questioned it until now.â

The first two posts you see on Tramp Stamps’ Instagram tell quite the story. One, uploaded April 14, is the video for the Tennessee band’s new single I’d Rather Die, a colourful, defiantly-spirited pop-punk affair in which they (twentysomethings Marisa Maino, Caroline Baker, and Paige Blue) declare that, “I’d rather die than hook up with another straight white guy”.
Three days later, the next post. “Hey fu--ers”, it begins, before angrily hitting back at the “misinformation, lies and cancel culture” about that band that spread through the internet in the 72 hours between dispatches. “You have gone to the ends of the f---ing earth to sh-t on us, have told us to kill ourselves, and have used conspiracy theories on TikTok as a trend to get more views on your own videos.”
