We’ve gotten so used to romantic, fun, and unrequited love songs about gender and sexuality (not that it’s a bad thing!), that we sometimes forget the reality of societal prejudices and oppression behind it.
There’s a lot to unpack with the Cardiff queercore punks Small Miracles as they release their bold, raw, and dauntless single Bisexual Panic. The band perfectly channeled queer rage into art, conveying the anger of those who cannot freely express themselves due to harassment and discriminatory acts that stems from negative biases and stigma.
Contrary to the typical meaning of “bisexual panic” that is used on social media, the track gives a different perspective, redefining the term itself. From the lyrics, chaotic hooks, and the overall punk rock explosion, Small Miracles boldly confronts street harassment and toxic masculinity all throughout the song.
The 104-second burst of energy will not only leave you wanting more but will also trigger a nerve in your system — transforming you into someone who’s no longer afraid of judgment, to stand up for every moment that you felt fear and oppressed.
If you’re looking for a queercore track that will make you scream or if you want to release a burst of emotion without someone or something to hold you back, you might want to give Small Miracles’ Bisexual Panic a try!
