Problem Patterns are four shouty queers who write songs for right now, swapping roles and instruments to get their point across about whatever angers them this week.
After many lonely nights screaming alone in their bedrooms over the state of the world, Alanah, Bethany, Bev and Ciara (aka ABBA) came together in 2018 to invent a new genre they called PUNK. It's shouty, it's heavy, it's tongue in cheek, it's inclusive, it's hopeful and it's fun.
The four DIY punk dads are all about creating havoc in celebratory and cathartic spaces. Bigger than The Beatles, but not yet quite as big as Slipknot, the band have played notable support slots with Le Tigre, Bob Vylan and Fight Like Apes.
Here's what some of their icons had to say about them:
“A thoroughly great racket” - Steve Lamacq, BBC RADIO 6 MUSIC
“They make weird music for right now that sounds like no one else and I am addicted” - Kathleen Hanna
“I just think they’re great” - Henry Rollins
“Fuckin’ fantastic!” - Gordon Ramsey
