Trans Panic is LIVE ON STREAMING!!

Our debut EP is A glorious mess of songs about punching out misogynists, a local chaos cryptid, moving past bad experiences, and using the power of necromancy for good.

If you like what you hear, please consider supporting a bunch of queer indy punk on Bandcamp.

Jill *really* needs to come to one of our shows!

Twitter post saying "I wish pride didn't always have to be rainbow and club music. Sometimes I wish pride was grungy lesbian punk contents and a crowd of furious women who own swords.

Today marks our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

The band originally formed in early 2024 when Ruby & Terra started playing together, it took a while to find a guitarist who really vibed right. 1 year ago, Callie played her first show with us & it's been only more rad every single day since.

"tranarchist" is a portmanteau of "trans" and "anarchist".
