It’s upsetting sometimes when our music is seen in a gendered way. I don’t think all-male bands get that, because they’re seen as the norm. It’s talked about a lot with us. In an illogical way, I can see it’s an issue because there’s not as many all female bands as there are all male bands. But that’s something distinct from the actual music that we’re making. … So many people talk about us being women, more than they talk about the music. That’s kind of where this comes from. It’s like, “Jesus we’re not here to talk about being women. We’re in a band — let’s talk about music.
