Charlie Jane Anders wrote about Problem Patterns, a Belfast punk band who posted a protest song called Bodies four days after the anti-immigrant riots in Northern Ireland.
Riots June 9 to 11, song out June 15, proceeds given away. Cancelled tours and dead mid-size venues and labels chasing the safest acts, and the band still turned it around in four days. Speed is one of the few advantages an independent act actually has over everyone bigger.
