True story: I saw them w/ at the drive in at the shrine auditorium. It was pretty packed and I really wanted to see them since her song "your weakness gives me life" really kept me going when a year before I was dealing with cancer and chemo & radiation therapy. i really saw that song as a way of mentally dealing w/ my cancer and drawing a stance of how to look at this invader in my brain. The weakness of the cancer being so stupid it would eventually kill itself if the cells accomplished what they were supposed to. I saw that as a weakness and that no matter what I win. Either I win eradicating the disease or we both die because it would still be killing itself in the process. So while in the audience watching le butcherretes with all the red lights and her wearing a red dress i also happened to be wearing my red Nintendo sweater matching the decorum of the stage. She caught me with a moment when there was a slight break in music and lyrics and looked right at me and I looked back at her, neither of us blinking flinching or moving. I didn't want to say anything or make a stupid gesture I just wanted to permanently burn that moment into my brain. I love her and I don't mean in a sexual attractive way I mean that she shared a moment in time with me and made music to keep me going and I love and appreciate her for doing that. I'm a fan for life, they can literally do no wrong.
This is beautiful. Keep fighting the good fight.
Great story my friend, I hope you are doing ok..
That was a great concert at the shrine. It was surprising when Teri took off the mechanic’s jumper to show off a torn up red dress. The dress looks liked someone actually tried to rip it off, instead of being fashionablely torn or something. It was a powerful message along with the music.
She looked me in the eyes in a gig of bosnian rainbows in a festival in México, happen so fast but the moment was pure magic, she is a goddes. I hope you´re better now man :)
I love that she fearlessly connects with the audience like that!
She does it here too. She’s that exact way always.
The stares she gives while she sings send chills.... so powerful, scary, incredible.
I sat next to her in an airplane once, and she was going over the health concerns she had about wearing a Pig's Head for one of her latest concerts. It was hard for me to throw my 2 cents in for that subject.
omg lol
She's like the Willy Wonka of music or something. Strange and wondrous.
The level of intensity that Teri Gender Bender (and her bandmates for that matter) put into everything she does is astounding to see. I'm not sure I've seen many (if any) more passionate and talented musicians out there.
10 years later, and I'm not even close to being sick of any of this
I've seen a lot of Tiny Desks, but Teri's performance here will always be my favorite!
Her stare MELTS and FRIGHTENS me at the same time, which I didn't know was possible until now! Her humbleness and modesty followed by a chill "cool cool" :) Her PASSION is what is undeniably blinding to anyone with heart though!!!!
Just watched them in concert and I can attest, Teri has a POWERFUL presence on stage. Even in a packed auditorium, they really were able to connect with individuals throughout the crowd during and inbetween each song. The emotion and intensity in their lyrics were so much I nearly cried, even when it was entirely in Spanish and I couldn't understand it. Just wow. I would 100% see them again. What a fantastic and unexpected opener for The Mars Volta
Yup.
Le Butcherettes (Teri) put on the most awesome show I have seen in a long time. Teri's presence on stage is amazing!
Saw them last night for the 3rd time. Always amazing. My only critique is that she didn't physically tear my heart out and murder me on stage. Maybe next time.....
yup, pretty much
She is phenomenal.
They opened for the Melvins here in San Luis Obispo. WOW. One of the best bands I have seen in quite a while. A must see band for me.
Saw them open for Melvins last month. they were great, her energy and intensity was over the top and a great show.
Teri is a female force I never knew existed. She takes performing to a whole new level of experience and showing the crowd how to let go of all the bullshit in your life and just let the demons out of the cage for a bit. You will not regret seeing Le Butcherettes live I promise.
i was taken at "hello" for now and forever
no matter what
One of the most wonderfully uninhibited performers in the history of music. The spirit of rock n' roll flows through her veins.
That was wonderful! She completely changes when she plays. I love to see that in a musician.
I love her passion .... I love her everything!!!!
She's loud.....That's a compliment. I like her vocal range.
One of my favorite tiny desks
wao q bien canta ella!, no sabia q es de Guadalajara. Mexico, definitivamente tenemos muy buenos músicos y no los valoramos como debería de ser
Pasan los años y me sigue gustando mucho esta presentación. Me recuerdo despertando con una amiga, escuchando esta canción entre humo de mota.
Saw her live! Incredible talent! Very friendly too.
She's amazing!!
Just heard them in an ad by fender. I think.... nope yeah, I'm definitely in love. New fan. WON'T get sick of you 2 weeks from now. Promise.
This is the sexiest thing I've ever seen a woman do.
Very close.
I'm in love!
She had me at "cough coughhhhh...."
I'm not sick of her and it's two weeks later....
Sergio Lobato Dont lie.......
+Mauricio Santa No lie bro....
she likes PJ a LOT. but she does it real well and I really love that sorta evil look in her eyes when she sings.
I was just gonna comment how much she reminds me of PJ!
Exactly, she's quite possessed by the Polly Jean from Rid of Me. I'm surprised to never hear her picking her as an influence, maybe she did.
Totally
I have tickets to see them in Atlanta in less than 2 weeks and I'm beyond excited! I've been following them since 2011, and finally get to see this emotion in person!!
La amo! Verla en vivo esta chingonsisimo!
Very PJ Harvey-esque, and that's very very cool.
So fresh!! Totally Inspiring 💖
you are killing it, good voice, good guitar, good music.
Me encanta, la amo! Es tan fuerte y hermosa!
Fantastic openness...this is music open and free.
i love her passion ... i love her ...everything!!!!
@9:38 That shit was punk as fuck ha
That was really weird xD
Was she throat singing and fucked up her throat? Or that was intentional? xD
Weird is always intentional with Teri. Thats her style. Nothing is a mistake. She's a total performer.
Real punk rock doesn't wear spikes!
real punk rock conforms to external arbitrary standards
Love her! Have been listening to Le Butcherettes lately and wondered if she's still active. I'm glad to see she is and was recently opening for Mars Volta. I'm going to check out her new stuff after this !
I found this years to late! This is perfect.
"Too". Dick, I know, sorry.
Love it!
I saw Le Butcherettes open for Melvins, Fantastic!
she is almost there. That bit "im green when you kick me, your man thinks he's bigger then my law, youre ashamed of me do do do doo..." sooooooooo fucking addiciting
super duper love this
Saw her yesterday with the new Omar Rodriguez Lopez project called 'Bosnian Rainbows'. She's a true artist and performer.
I LOVE THIS SO MUCHHHHHH
I think I'm safe to say and agree that, Teri and her band are most damn sure a band to look out for. I hate to have such expectations, but if she keeps on going like this, she and her band are going to explode and become one of the most recognizable and notable musical acts out there. Honestly, I just discovered her today, downloaded Sin Sin Sin, watched videos and interviews on here, and was just completely blown away. I immediately had to buy their album AND t-shirt.
im in love with this girl.
AWESOME!
she's great!!
Maam, you are a star
I love you teri!!!!!
she's an amazing artist!
Awesome !
Damn this is perfection 😍
Amor eterno
omg thanks for finding her
There are just so many voices to go around! Everyone's going to sound like somebody
When she coughs. 2020 felt that.
Saw this npr.org and had to get the album. I lover her passion for her music sexy!
ella es genial :3
Okay I'm in love.
What a voice......., what a woman.........LOVE
She is very pretty.
himpybimp
she had brown hair and shoes also
Gorgeous and tight. Love it !
Why are you such a shining star
So what we are so far gone dead that we respond to native culture slang
elle est geniale, quelle presence!!
Someone needs to show this girl to Karen O
love her.
I like her and the song too.
She reminds me SOoooo much of PJ Harvey vocally. Bosnian Rainbows was an incredible show. She's awesome 😎👍💯
She's perfect c:
wow speachless.
Total Banshy Queen...I love her!!!!!! Nothing a woman's inner power to scare the pants off you! Keep going gal...%$#@! awesome!!!!!!!
Amazing. TERI 3
I saw them in Tucson warming up for L7. I've seen L7 a shitload of times, and Le Butcherettes was the best band I've seen warm up for L7.
and that doesn't even take into account the ferocity of her live performances. It's like she's channeling early 70's Iggy Pop.
we love le butcherettes.
The thing I love is her passion
Enamorao :)
Killer performance.
you have my love !
Saw her yesterday with Bosnian Rainbows and I had to look her up. She looked at me and I fell in love with her
Amazing talent. Would love to see her and buzz Osborne do a tiny desk while Mackie does art in the back ground.
Teri can hang. also, the high strings seem purposely disabled. Genius
All her guitars have only 4 strings (the 4 lowest) & are tuned in some non standard way she invented
indeed , nice stuff.
Shes the only one who can save the rock n roll today... and i love her :P ... shes fucking really amazin... Tremenda! ;)
i love teri
Hello to you too and I'm glad :)
@MannequinTalker I also love how free spirited she is. It's a pure "don't give a fuck" attitude (something that has seemed to be missing in great music these days). I also like how she doesn't care to blatantly and shamelessly name drop in her songs. I've only seen Henry Miller and Charles Bukowski do that.
1:06 is the best look. haha. I love Teri.
Yeah.. guapa !!!!!......... 🇲🇽
Goddess
Was that cough a "prop" or real?.
Made me go "WTH"...pretty consistent with the rest of her performance tbh!
Pretty cool.
good performance - It's definitely worth listening (and I mean listening not to have ít only running in the background)
woooooowwww!!!!!!
homie eres la mejor! cantas chingón, y eres el único espiritu punk mexicano desde que Joe Volume desapareció....biggest crush evah!
Lol...She's so uniquely awesome..Don't be scared of her, she won't bite.
HOLA&CHEERS! Gracious Senorita!
Someone love her still... I had my share of feminine bipolar... I won't judge her in anyway. I can't. I respect her intense presence. I understand it. You & I may wonder if she'll survive at the end of the day. And to to think of her out on the town drunk and on her own, is frighting. I might be wrong, but I say what I mean...
Love her, protect her, nourish her, but most important... Forgive her... And she'll be alright.
Good for her she doesn't drink then. ;)
