Welcome to Les Insoumises

Welcome to Les Insoumises.

“Les Insoumises” is french to describe women who refuse to submit.

This blog is a place to promote women and non-binary artists from the punk/hardcore scene, as well as the folk, rock n’ roll, psychobilly, power pop, grunge, and indie scenes.

Through interviews, discussions and art, we believe that empowering female musicians is crucial to gender equality, in a scene that is mostly male dominated.

Anybody is welcome to participate in this blog, as we feel it is important to remain united against sexism, or any form of hatred and intolerance, based on gender, race, color, sexual orientation, and religion.

Punk rock is not a fucking boys club.

Join the fight, and together, let's show futur generations that anybody can get on a stage to fuck shit up.

Ce blog est un site qui fait la promotion de femmes et artistes non-binaires, qui viennent de la scène punk/hardcore, ainsi que les scènes folk, rock n’ roll, psychobilly, power pop, grunge, et indie.

À travers des entrevues, des discussions et des œuvres artistiques, nous croyons que l’autonomisation des femmes musiciennes, est cruciale à l’égalité des genres, principalement dans une scène qui est surtout dominée par les hommes.

N’importe qui peut participer à ce blog, étant donné que nous croyons qu’il est important de demeurer unis, face au sexisme ou n’importe quelle forme de haine et d’intolérance, basé sur le genre, la race, la couleur, l’orientation sexuelle, et la religion d’une personne.

Le punk rock n’est pas un club réservé exclusivement aux garçons.

Joignez le combat, et ensemble, montrons aux futures générations, que n'importe qui a le droit le monter sur un stage et foutre le bordel.

2020: HEAR THEM ROAR

Band: Dream Nails / Photographer: Jeroen Jacobs The year 2020 was probably off to a good start for many of us. The prospect of new music, new shows, new ways to kick doors down and share art that means a lot to us, was promising once again. Then, around mid march, it all came to a stop. The whole industry was placed on hold while new ways of doing things were put in place to take care of everyone around us. It didn't stop us from being heard though. It didn't take long for independant medias and artists to get the ball rolling again. After all, most of us have been doing it ourselves for so long. We were up for the challenge.  Eventually new music was recorded, virtual events became a thing, and through online communities, voices have been heard. We are proud to say that it ended up being a good year for women and marginalized artists. We have discovered so many great bands, have seen so many amazing events being organized, and most of all, we've seen all of you getting tog...

Interview w/ Victoria Mladenovski (Peer Pressure)

Peer Pressure is a straight foward, tough as nail, hardcore band from Quebec city. Formed in 2018, the band, fronted by singer Victoria Mladenovski , released a first EP that made lots of waves within the local punk/hardcore/metal community, and beyond. After a few shows around the province, Victoria quickly gained the reputation of being a fierce performer, with powerful vocals, that will make you wanna 2-step your way to the pit in a second. The group just released their first opus, so we got in touch with her to talk about it, and how it all begun. First of all, congrats on the new album, it's such a powerful kick to the face, from start to finish! How does it feel to finally put out your first full length? We are beyond proud to finally share “Catharsis”, which is heavily focussed on mental illnesses. We’ve worked so hard as a band from the start. We are still quite “new” to the scene, so putting out our first full length is just overwhelming. It hasn’t been an easy roa...
