Protest music often trades in broad stroke messaging born of group consensus. Red Ship, the new full length from Star Matriarch, is deeply personal protest music born of Carol Bui's lived experience as an AuDHD mother of color and (former) sex worker under Imperialist capitalism. Melding syncopated world rhythms with abrasive post-punk instrumental explorations, the album seethes with a palpable, raw humanity. A modernist, global link in the riot grrl chain, on Red Ship Star Matriarch has alchemized pain into potent, revolutionary, empowering art.
