I highly recommend the show We Are Lady Parts; a quick six episode sitcom about a female Muslim punk band.
Just the name alone “The Hijabis”…great name for a band!
The face covers worn in the first part of the video are interesting, because I couldn’t figure out if they were being worn because of covid, for religious sensibility reasons (not necessarily their own), or as a rock-n-roll conceit. Which is pretty cool.
Came here to say exactly the same thing. One of my favourite shows of the year!
I’m not musically literate; but I liked the inclusion of a bit of slap bass and some reggae in the composition. It is great to see some new (to me) imagery and hear lyrics from a different cultural point of view.

I do need to get around to watching that at some point…
Just going to say “If your god hates music He’s a Dick.” (or very possibly, you’re the dick, and are making things up to try to exert a degree of social control over others).

in case anyone is into the heavier punk sounds
