- Quote about “bass face”: “They want us to be a rock band,” adds Alana, “and then Este has these faces where she expresses herself, and it’s like, ‘But no, you’re a woman, you should be more pretty. Why aren’t you being pretty?’ At the end of the day, you can’t even ask, ‘What do you want from me?’ because I don’t give a f***, but these comments are f***ing insane.” “It’s not like I’m going to change how I perform,” says Este, “because it’s the only time that I feel good. The only time that I feel happy is when I’m onstage playing the music that I wrote.”
