Sexual Assault (band) httpsuploadwikimediaorgwikipediacommonsthu

Sexual Assault was a Canadian punk band from St. Catharines, Ontario. Their songs were about drinking, doing drugs, and social satire. They formed in early 2008. After a few months, they added another member, female vocalist, "H-Ivey".

Controversy

the band was developing notoriety due to a campaign, led by the Niagara Sexual Assault Center, and Feminine Action Collective trying to get the band to change its name. Opposing groups say the band is violating human rights and turning Sexual Assault into a casual issue. The band denies such claims, saying that their name and music are open to interpretation.

Music

Most of their music revolved around binge drinking, consuming large amounts of marijuana, and touches lightly from time to time on societal issues. Some song titles include:

  • "Das Boot"
  • "Carrol Is a Feminist"
  • "Beer Patriot"
  • "Emo Sucks"
  • "Taking Back the South"
  • "I Want to Fuck"
  • "Call of Duty 5"
  • Discography
