Episode 120: Harry Bailey of Death Goals on the dichotomy of punk rock

Harry Bailey from UK queercore due Death Goals joins Scream Therapy host Jason Schreurs to talk about how punk rock has been the best AND worst thing in their lives. Harry explains that the anxiety, existential dread, and gender dysphoria they feel is outweighed by the joy of playing music and being part of the punk scene. http://deathgoals.bandcamp.com Featured song clips: Death Goals - "Tchotchke" from Survival Is An Act Of Defiance (2025) The Hirs Collective live at New Friends Fest (Toronto, 2023) Turnstile - "Blackout" (Glastonbury, 2022) Death Goals - "Even a Worm Can Turn" from Survival Is An Act Of Defiance (2025) The SCREAM THERAPY BOOK is now available!
