The HIRS Collective US

Queerpunkband with political nerve and unmatched live energy

Hardcore chaos meets popanthems. Growls meet solidarity. Join in shaping a collective middle finger when the much-hyped the HIRS Collective brings their intense, defiant, and battle-ready queerpunk energy to ALICE.

They’re likely to sample Cindy Lauper and Shania Twain. But the HIRS Collective is anything but your typical dance party, as Undertoner noted in their enthusiastic review of the queerpunk collective’s intense show at Roskilde Festival last year. Performing on the Avalon stage, which was transformed into a hardcore venue for the festival’s opening day, the HIRS Collective mixed their hardhitting queer punk and pop-song interludes from a stage set up in the center of the tent. Yes, the HIRS Collective is for those with a high tolerance for chaos. It’s guaranteed to be an entertaining yet cathartic evening. For the HIRS Collective, their biting energy is inseparable from creating joyful and wild moments of connection with their audience. Let’s fucking go!

The HIRS Collective is deeply embedded in the leftist punk scene. As they put it themselves, they’re “a collective of freaks and faggots that will never stop existing.” Their declared mission is to fight for, defend, and celebrate the survival of trans, queer, poc, black, women and any and all other folks who have to constantly face violence, marginalization, and oppression. Their latest album, ‘We’re Still Here’, oozes of resistance. Featuring contributions from 35 different artists, the album embodies how seriously the HIRS Collective takes collectivism: Once you work with the Collective, you are the Collective. The title isn’t reserved solely for the two musicians who typically take the stage during their performances. They want to connect with everyone who comes into their world.
