It's #MusicWomenWednesday and I'm not sure I've ever shared Beth Rettig's work under this hashtag. Her band Blindess released four records and then she regrouped under the name #WhereWeSleep.

The song No One Now also features Dave Barbarossa on live drums. (If it's the same Dave Barbarossa, he's on the first Adam and the Ants LP and was later in Bow Wow Wow.)

One more because it came up in a podcast I was listening to.

Earl Vince and the Valiants - Someone's Gonna Get Their Head Kicked In Tonight

Later a punk staple, and reworked once for Xmas (Santa's gonna....), the original was performed (under this moniker) by an early incarnation of Fleetwood Mac and written by original member Jeremy Spencer.

(The podcast? Discord & Rhyme's episode on Rumours.)

Seen over on Bsky...

‪Whenever you hear ANYONE blame ANYTHING on immigrants, say:
"It's not immigrants, it's oligarchs."
Always. Every time. Make it a stock phrase. Make it the conventional wisdom. Because it happens to be true, but it's also bite-sized enough to catch on and spread.

It's not immigrants. It's oligarchs.
