Riffs for Reproductive Justice is a compilation curated by Grim Kim Kelly, all proceeds from which go to the National Network of Abortion Funds and the Yellowhammer Fund in Gileadabama. It's raised over $10K in 48 hours, making it the second best-selling release on Bandcamp in any genre during that period. Rolling Clone has even noticed. It's almost gravy that the comp itself is fucking terrific. Several favorites of mine are represented (Ails; great old-ish False track; great recent-ish Woe track that's pretty "right now"; Thou finally record their first Nirvana meta-cover) alongside a ton of new-to-me blood, a lot of which is very good. I'll be digging into this for a while.Also, the "artist statement" from Jucifer's Amber Valentine is fucking FIRE.If you were maybe searching for a single thing not to hate about this country tomorrow, this will help.
