    Poster/Print + Digital Album

    Icon of the demimonde Alexander Geist releases his second single “A Woman's Right to Choose” as a limited edition art poster, illustrated by Sophie Iremonger. Dedicated to war-crimes whistleblower Chelsea Manning, the poster features a line drawing of Manning cradling the body of Geist, in imitation of the Pietà. Notes Geist, “The idea of releasing a single as a poster is part of a continued exploration of the physical remnants of pop culture. What is my identity as a recording artist in the digital age?”

    Size A3 (approx. 30 × 42 cm). 170 g stock. Ships folded.

    Includes unlimited streaming of A Woman's Right to Choose via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Is is so hard to comprehend? Once I was a woman, now I am your man. What is so hard to understand? What Mother Nature gave me, I gave back again. Don't be so juvenile. The choice here, lover dear, was never yours it's mine. The fact of the fiction is this: I won't wear the body if the body doens't fit. I'm not forcing myself on anyone. I'm not forcing myself on anyone. If I exist it's to resist you A woman's right to choose You don't create me when you name me A woman's right to choose Cheer me, jeer me, souvenir me A woman's right to choose Change is hard, but I am harder It's true, I travel in a coffin of dirt An undead pervert in a button-down shirt A trick, a puzzle a lesson to learn You ask me "What's your gender", I say "Katharine Hepburn" And she didn't come from Adam's rib He came from where all life begins To take a long walk in these shoes Up the hill, oh Sisyphus, forever pay your dues! I'm not forcing myself on anyone. I'm not forcing myself on anyone. If I exist it's to resist you A woman's right to choose You don't create me when you name me A woman's right to choose Cheer me, jeer me, souvenir me A woman's right to choose Change is hard, but I am harder I am sick to death of this particular self I want another Yes, I am sick to death of this particular self I want another Before you I stand as a self-made man Built of determination by the strength of his hand And I shall admit to no regret The guilt that would bind mine cast inside the oubliette If I exist it's to resist you A woman's right to choose You don't create me when you name me A woman's right to choose Cheer me, jeer me, souvenir me A woman's right to choose Change is hard, but I am harder
