kinda went for a midwest emo influence (you'd hear it especially in a full band context with a vocalist) mostly inspired by the band HUM. i'm not really doing anything super funky or special with this one, just having fun!!
‼️ PHOTOSENSITIVY WARNING ‼️
the filter moves around a lot, it's not really flashing lights but it might be overstimulating to some
As I’m writing this, it’s my birthday, and I just released a new album that I’m super excited about! It’s called “Ganymede Gives Up The Ghost” by Stuffy Doll, and it’s got 17 tracks spanning genres from hip hop to screamy metal to punk to soulful ballads. Songs about a trans superhero, growing up, being sick, friendship, predators, the queer community, and so much more!
It even features the incredible Riley Silverman as the voice of The Narrator! (Not to mention that amazing album art by @ghostcashew)
If you like Hozier, Florence+The Machine, Slipknot, clipping., Lorde, Against Me! or honestly just any good music, I think this album has something for you.
Since it’s my birthday, I’m asking that you consider buying it on my Bandcamp, but if you can’t afford it, just stream it wherever you listen to music and please share it around. I’m putting all the money I’ve made so far into advertising this album because I really believe in it.
Marching season is almost upon us, and I have assumed the older sibling role this year. That being said, here’s your older sibling reminding you not to bind during marching practice!
I know you may want to, but it’s seriously not good for you. I know dysphoria sucks; I’ve felt it before, and I’ve been one of those that didn’t listen to the advice of my older sibling figure. It leaves lasting effects on breathing, you could crack a rib, dislocate or break one.
If you want an alternative, possibly wear a tighter sports bra. NOT tight to the point where you can’t breathe, but sports bras work wonders when you can’t bind. I know dysphoria sucks, but your health comes first.
Something we wanted to call attention to, just in case you've heard one of our songs and enjoyed it and wanted to have a copy but don't have the money to buy one:
Every single thing we've released can be had digitally via Bandcamp for free.
We've made sure that this is available for you, because we've never wanted that to be a barrier to the art we make as The Crystal Furs.
On our releases, you'll see the following when you go to the listing:
When you click on "Buy Digital Album," you'll note there is no minimum - you can put in 0, and get a free download. No strings attached, fully endorsed by the band. We just want you to hear and enjoy what we make.
If you can pay? Super! We won't stop you, for sure! But you don't have to.
In addition:
All our music is released under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial license.
Basically, that means that if you want to use our music in something - a video, a remix, a game, whatever - you're free to do so as long as you attribute it to us and are also releasing your work noncommercially.
(If you want to use it in a commercial product? Let us know! We are super easy to work with and for small creators we are not gonna be hard to afford!)
Ok, this outfit, makeup and hair was so good last night I’m running it another day. Also, you can see how light my hair is, it was my second lightening so far on the way to silver.

'Cause baby, I loved you at your worst
And I fixed your heart, but mine still hurts
And now some other person Is gonna get the better version of you, of you
"They bonded over the sudden isolation brought about by their success, as they found themselves constantly on the road and away from home. Baker and Dacus both came to their queerness in conservative religious environments. All three struggled growing up as queer women and fans of music that was largely made by misogynistic bros."
