The people commenting here are presumably almost all punk/hardcore fans. This tells me that you potentially enjoy it when Ian Mackaye is shouting about his problems. You were probably into it when Ron Reyes shouted about his problems. You likely thought it was cool to hear what Jello Biafra had to shout about. Then a trans woman shouts about her problems and it's "SJW bullshit," or "a trans gimmick," or whatever way you want to discredit this band for. Being a trans person can really suck. There's a story to be told there. Who are you to shame anybody for telling their story in a scene that is SPECIFICALLY about giving average people a platform to express themselves?

As a punk this album makes me want to kick ass! As a girl this album makes me want to kick ass! As a trans person this album makes me want to kick ass! As a human this album makes me want to kick ass!
I remember I had a friend who said this band would be better if their lyrics didn’t have to do with transsexuality Well that person is no longer my friend
I have my preference in terms of lyrics, but whatever. I'm straight and the music sounds good, and the lyrics are better than some other nonsense so im all for the occasional listen of this
As a straight man aware of the need to fight all kinds of opressions inside a class conflict context in order to smash capitalism and all its forms of violence, being involved with extreme metal (wich is most of the time misogynistic, sexist, homophobic and thus repulsive), but also passionate about hardcore/punk/crust/d-beat, is really amazing to discover queercore!

@@TheseBitchesWantNikes nothing says master race like obsessively posting on obscure broken up punk bands year old comments. Great use of your superior genes you awkward man child.
the point of punk music is to be an individual and not give a fuck about what anyone else thinks, so props to this band for making music about problems they face and not caring what anyone else thinks
so I was at a bar tonight and some dude put his phone up to my ear and told me to check this band out and I immediately fell in love how raw and hardcore this sound was.
LOL at people saying this isn't innovative. Suddenly hardcore, one of the music genres most guilty of stagnation and a lack of experimenting, and "keeping it old school" and "taking it back to '88!" (again?!), is concerned with breaking new musical frontiers? Listen to Phill Niblock or something. G.L.O.S.S. are a great hardcore band. What the hell more do you need?
+blackdunes1 well-said! Might as well go tell Slayer they've been making the same record for the past two decades, while they're at it! If it ain't broke, why fix it?
+blackdunes1 METZ is a good example of a modern hardcore band who have their own unique sound that isn't just a carbon copy of a million other third-tier bands.
Wow, nice. I used Slayer as an EXAMPLE, you dimwits, of a band who hasn't changed their style in decades, yet their fans keep coming back album after album. MY point is, everyone commenting on this video about how people need to do "something innovative" with hardcore and that this band isn't are barking up a short tree. Who cares? It's HARDCORE - hardcore as a genre hasn't done anything innovative in decades either. Who cares?? It's about the bands playing to their passions. If they want to make basic four-chord hardcore, and they do it well (which this band does), who cares if it's not the next coming of Hardcore Jesus?? By the way, Metz is a rad band. Love em.
The difference is Slayer took part in creating a whole new genre so they've earned their place in history. I honestly don't care that this band sounds derivative, they're just pulling from such a limited pool of ideas and don't bring anything new or interesting to the table. This sound should have died in the late-80's. There's a reason Minor Threat broke up after a few years and started Fugazi.
The point I was making about hardcore bands not being innovative is that there have been about a thousand hetero/cis hardcore bands that somehow represent the *opposite* of innovation that everyone jocks their shit and praises them for "Keepin' it real." People still wear those dumb Bane hoodies. As soon as a queer band shows up and does a similar thing, they're "Not innovative OMG." All of a sudden this weird prejudice applies to only them. Hardcore isn't inherently about innovation. It's about voicing anger towards oppressive systems. This is why GLOSS are great and whether or not they're innovative is irrelevant.
"innovative" my foot. this band is literally- a bunch of girls living outside society's shit, making music about the infuriating bullshit we live through every single day as trans people. "musicianship" and "innovation" didn't fucking matter because it wasn't the point.
thanks GLOSS for making wonderful music. thanks youtube comments for clearly illustrating what is meant here by 'Society's Shit.' and thanks gender-non-conforming comrades for repeatedly showcasing the strength of the human spirit. Fuck the patriarchy.
The fact that no one told me about gloss for years means I'm squaring up with all y'all how dare you not tell me there's a band out there that fucks this hard
The very best HC I've heard for a very, very long time, and believe me, it ain't like I haven't been looking. Love this lot. Each track is tremendous. Is their orientation really a thing? No, thought not. The music says it all. Would have loved to see them live - along with OFF! I'm 54, you know, so know a bit about proper HC. And this is it. This lot are better than the vast majority of HC bands from the 80s. Great drummer. If you are are honestly putting this lot down because of your preconceived opinions, then you are my dear, a knob. Simple as. Out.
Whenever I hear music like his I wonder what happens if one night one of the people in the band has a headache but they have to go onstage and perform this anyway. This is music for people who never get headaches, because if they do, man, look out.
I love how I got an add for the Mormon church before the video. youtube should really check what adds the let air on what videos because I'm pretty sure no one listening to G.L.O.S.S wants to join the Mormon church
@@blooberri666 Wow, it took you THIS long to respond? To a comment I made 4 months ago? I'm honestly surprised I got even a response at all. Well anyways........ First off, I made the comment off a phone not a computer cause I don't have one stupid. Second, have you actually seen the live footage of the band? With a name like Sadie Switchblade, I expect more of a badass persona. Instead she comes off as being more "all bark and no bite". She should've taken use from Jayne County, especially her early stuff with the Electric Chairs.
I came for the badass music. Stayed for the whining Whirr fans, cis-babies, and super square wannabe snobs who act like they've never heard a hardcore band before, but feel obligated to comment on music they clearly don't get. This shit pisses off allllll the right people :D
You can always spot the people who don't really listen to punk or hardcore in these comments because they try to play music critics but they're not very good at it. And nobody's hating on cis people. I'm hating on cis people who have a problem with trans people and cry about it.
I'm so glad this is here. Thank you. I got my hot pink g.l.o.s.s. shirt a while ago, i practically live in it! So enjoy this jammin' fucking EP and go buy it on their bandcamp. Support volatile visceral indie music!!!!!!!
Great, powerful stuff. The production here is pretty impressive. Pure power in the whole soundscape and every element sits perfectly. The whole thing just rocks. Tight band.
Wow this is some impressive stuff. They really got the hardcore sound down! Great energy, great locked in rhythms that make you want mosh until you have a heart attack. Well played!
This is great old school punk. I'd never heard of these guys before and that was my 1st impression. The gender/sexual orientation of the band members is irrelevant all that matters is the music and message.
