Sublux
totally wired
A hardcore punk band with a spooky anarcho twist, Sublux move between unhinged speed, ominous doom and heavy emotional depth with big riffs, chaotic synths, a pummelling rhythm section and piercing banshee vocals. Their line-up is primarily women, primarily Asian and two-thirds wheelchair users; the band's name itself refers to a symptom of their shared disability. Their lyrics explore grief and rage towards a societal history of selfishness and cruelty whilst also standing as a testament to the persistence of those that society deems undesirable: "No matter how much society tries to extinguish us, we're still here."
The freely accessible program totally wired celebrates DIY culture, the communities that shape it, and the connections forged across borders through local scenes, diasporas and intersections.
