Led by Ben Hopkins and Liv Bruce, who both use they/them pronouns, PWR BTTM's Pageant is fully informed by the queer identity, with songwriting that centers on both the grief and glitter of being LGBTQ. The band's 13-track effort is celebratory and humorous--"Answer my text, you dick--but powerful and earnest in its intentions--"When you are queer, you are always 19." Listen, below.
