Folk Punk Songs about surviving/Coping with being raped

I'm going through it y'all

Woke up having a ptsd episode at 3am after a terrible nightmare where the men who trafficked me found me again.

My brain is currently being held together by Scotch tape, drugs, and folk punk songs so I was wondering if anyone had a track that might be particularly helpful.

Sincerely,

- A Complete Fucking Mess

this is what it’s like to listen to music on Spotify that have serious topics in the name of the song/band.

recommendations

hey folk punk enjoyers! i really want to get more into folk punk and listen to more folk punk artists and was looking for recommendations for artists/albums/songs!

i’ve been listening to kimya dawson since i was about 11/12 (she’s really changed my life) and i also listen to pigeon pit, ajj and the mountain goats (i know they’re more folk rock than they are punk but i like listening to songs from the sunset tree and some of their other stuff mixed in with my folk punk songs!)

any recommendations would be great thanks!! :))

What is this instrument Apes has?

I saw Ape’s of the State last week and Mollie (the one who seems to play every instrument) had this horn I’d never seen. It was roughly 1/2 or 1/3 of the size of a bullhorn for speaking. The sound I would describe as “a kazoo and a melodica on an amplifier”. Or, sort of like those Otamaphone synths that were popular a few years back.

Anyone recognize it?

Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKp5A9j06fo Has a folk punk band done a cover of any of the songs on this special? Doing each song would clock just about under 30 minutes

Where is this song?...

So the song is by She/Her/Hers and it was on YouTube like a bunch of years ago, it was called "Me a 30 rack and you" (I'm pretty sure something like that, and there was a recording of it by punk with a camera (I think). Where is it?? 😭😭

Phoenix folk punk scene

I got into folk punk about 5 years ago but I want to get more involved in the scene here in phoenix, arizona. Any Arizonians here know how I can find shows? Or how often bands come through here?

I know AJJ is from here, I've gone to almost all their shows in the past few years. I also saw Apes of the state in September. Beyond that though, I don't really know how to find the more obscure bands that don't get the same level of attention. I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks yall

Is there a folk punk song that had Homer Simpson as the intro or was that a dream?

I seem to remember a folk punk song that had Homer Simpson's bee speech as an intro.

"Never! Never, Marge. I can't live the button-down life like you. I want it all: the terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles. Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odors -- oh, I'll never be the darling of the so-called ‘City Fathers’ who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about 'What's to be done with this Homer Simpson?'"

But I may have fallen asleep listening to Sledding With Tigers.

I have no idea what to call this song

A little song I wrote about alcoholism and war, it’s had lots of different titles but I can’t decide on one
