8/25 Against Me! - Jordan's 1st Choice + Walking is Still Honest @ 9:30 Club, DC 10/13/17
Laura Jane Grace - vocals/guitar // James Bowman - guitar/vocals // Inge Johansson - bass // Atom Willard - drums
Four years is a measurement of time that America has used for centuries to indicate change. Presidential terms last four years; high school diplomas and college degrees typically take four years apiece, too. It’s not an arbitrary thing, either: It typically takes that much time from the declaration of something changing for it to actually change.
Meet Laura Jane Grace. Four years ago, the Against Me! frontwoman came out as transgender; 18 months later, she released the band’s sixth album, the fiery Transgender Dysphoria Blues, one which she began working on before her transition and helped document the struggles she was facing. It was an intensely personal record that took on a life of its own, connecting with thousands of new listeners drawn to Grace’s honesty and complexity while still pleasing Against Me!’s dedicated fanbase.
Now, four years after Grace’s public reintroduction, Against Me! is ready to release their new album, Shape Shift With Me, September 16 on Total Treble. While much has changed in the lives of Grace and her bandmates—guitarist James Bowman, bassist Inge Johansson and drummer Atom Willard—in that time period, it’s clear that those intervening years have done wonders for creativity.
“Everything with Shape Shift With Me has been really about keeping momentum going,” she says. “In between every tour we did for Transgender Dysphoria Blues, I would have a couple songs I had written and we would demo them. At the end of two years of touring, we had an album ready to record. Usually, you come off of touring for a record and you're back at square one. But this was so fully formed it felt like there was no choice but to go ahead and record the songs.”
Shape Shift With Me has the distinction of the first album Grace has written truly from the heart, with no metaphorical cloaks cast over the lyrics. It’s an album about love, that deceptively complex emotion we all struggle with yet has somehow eluded most of Grace’s songwriting for the past 20 years.
“Tons of people have written about love. But while love is cliché, it’s infinitely relevant. For me, having always been in a punk band that was expected to be political, I never felt like I had that option to write about feelings in that way. That’s what I ended up being drawn to this time. It’s writing in a way I thought I could never write before, and not giving a shit about expectations.”
As such, Shape Shift With Me is a loose concept album about traveling the world and falling in and out of love, with Grace serving as the narrator. But even though she was opening herself up to new songwriting topics, she knew what her mission was from the start.
“Is there a record that is about relationships from a trans perspective?” she asks rhetorically. “There needs to be more records about trans rights and everything like that, but feeling like I already did that, I wanted to move on to write commentary on living from a trans perspective. I wanted to write the transgender response to the Rolling Stones’ Exile On Main St., Liz Phair’s Exile In Guyville and the Streets’ A Grand Don’t Come For Free. All those records are relationship records. There’s been an infinite amount of records talking about what love means from a cisgender perspective. I wanted to present the trans perspective on sex, love and heartbreak.”
With Grace’s new motivation came a new outlook on the band, as well. Previous albums found the songwriting process to be a largely solitary experience, but she embraced the spirit of collaboration for Shape Shift With Me—so much so that when Cody Votolato of the Blood Brothers sent her some demos of songs he was working on for another project, she became inspired and ended up co-writing “Boyfriend” and “Norse Truth,” two of the album’s most memorable tracks, with him.
“It was just about opening up to whatever comes my way karmically,” Grace says. “Whatever everyone in the band is willing to offer, I just wanted to be open to it. I didn’t want it to be like what it was in the past where it may have felt closed. I want it to be different.”
In a career already full of classic punk records, Shape Shift With Me feels like the definitive Against Me! album—it’s poppy and catchy (“Rebecca,” “Suicide Bomber”), aggressive and in-your-face (“ProVision L-3,” “Dead Rats”), sentimental and longing (“Crash,” “All This And More”). Moreover, it’s the culmination of four years of existence as Laura Jane Grace—there’s no going back now, so she might as well embrace it.

STORYLINE:
Sleet stung the faces of pedestrians and snow and ice coated windshields and streets on Wednesday as a Valentine's Day blizzard in the US roared out of the Midwest and shut down parts of the Northeast.
Hundreds of thousands of people also experienced powercuts due to the cold weather.
At least nine deaths were blamed on the adverse weather conditions.
In Washington DC road crews managed to clear snow and slush from major roads, but it was expected to take longer to clear neighbourhood streets.
Highway officials in Washington DC and neighbouring Maryland and Virginia said conditions were improving on highways and major roads around the capital region.
No major storm-related accidents have been reported.
Chilly conditions also prevailed over most of the metro area in New York City on Wednesday, with up to three inches of snow still expected to fall.
The National Weather Service issued blizzard warnings for parts of New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine, where as much as 2 feet (60 centimetres) of snow was possible in the western part of the state.
Most of upstate New York reported several inches of new snow on the ground on Wednesday morning with 10 inches at Owego, on the Pennsylvania line.

HIGHLIGHTS Eaton Workshop's Allegory Speakeasy
The It place in Washington, DC seems to be the Eaton Workshop located on the corner of 12th and L Street NW. Part hotel, wellness center, restaurant, coffeeshop, co-working space, and now a speakeasy. Allegory, located behind a nondescript black door in the back lobby, this amplified spirit room provides a respectable punch to the craft cocktail. Hand cut ice, unique flavors and premium liquors will settle any day. On the walls, Erik Thor Sandberg has re-imagined Ruby Bridges as Alice in Wonderland in his first ever mural painting.

Schoolboy Q ft. Kendrick Lamar- There He Go
SocialStudiesDC.com
twitter.com/SocialStudiesDC
A lot of things connect the east and the west in our dear nation—highways, non-stop flights, and miles of delicious roadside fast food—but hip-hop isn't one of them. Leave it to a DC native to play diplomat: blogger and event planner DCtoBC orchestrated the union of newly annointed West Coast rapper Kendrick Lamar and hometown up-and-comers Phil Ade, Phil da Phuture, and Ashton Travis for a sold-out show at the 9:30 Club recently. A few hours after Kendrick Lamar and his crew touched down on the East Coast, we met up with them at a towering mansion in Kalorama. As we wandered through the foyer, up the elevator, and over the skywalk (what, your house doesn't have a skywalk?), Schoolboy Q, a member of Lamar's black hippy movement, delivered an exclusive performance of the yet-to-be released track, There He Go.
