" DEAD LAXMIIS " The greatest Sri Lankan underground punk band that never happened. (Swipe to see all 👉) . . . Back in 2001, the central city of Colombo, Sri Lanka was suddenly disrupted by the presence of an all-female punk rock band. "Dead Laxmiis" arrived with the intention to make a statement, and they certainly did. Their music was loud, distorted, and high-energy — a beautiful contrast to the traditional climate of the city. Despite opposition from traditionalists, Dead Laxmiis quickly rose to become one of the most influential underground punk bands in the area. The band had two driving forces - "Yadvi" and "Pig Crusher Pink", or "PCP" for short. Known for their theatrical makeup and politically-charged lyrics, these two women were determined to speak out about issues such as social equality and women's rights. Together, they pushed Dead Laxmiis to become a powerful symbol of female empowerment in the face of adversity. The band had a short-lived career, disbanding in 2003. They only managed to record one EP called "Amma! I started the fire!". #deadlaxmiis #punk #srilanka #lka #colombo #jaffna #contemporary #contemporaryart #saskiafernandogallery #muvindubinoy https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm8XHpfINti/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

An intrusive killer scorpion points the way to six new species in Sri Lanka

The Indian red scorpion (Hottentotta tamulus), an invasive species found in Jaffna, is responsible for several human deaths each year.

The mother scorpion has a tender side as she cares for the young for several days until they can virtually “get off her back” and manage on their own.
