Punk Girl performed by Thee Headcoatees 1997
Recommended by tinks [profile]

The most snarling piece of the most amateurish punk rock. The guitars shreds through you, and when she sings "I'll beat you down 'til you are dead," I believe it!

from Punk Girls (Sympathy for the Record Industry), available on CD (SFTRI)

Chick Habit performed by April March 1995

For those not yet ready for France Gall/Serge Gainsbourg quite yet. This is Elinor Blake's (aka April March) English language version of "Laisse Tomber Les Filles" written by Gainsbourg and made famous by Gall. I prefer this meatier version to the France Gall original but it did get me to go out and purchase my first France Gall CD. The CD also contains a French language version of the same song.

from Chick Habit (Sympathy For The Record Industry SFTRI 398), available on CD

Jesus On The Mainline performed by Mr. Airplane Man 2002

Great sleazy short 'n' snappy blues number from two girls deeply influenced by Howlin' Wolf.

If you like the blues, i dare you to defy me.

from Moanin', available on CD
