is

Somebody seriously suggesting that the Little Flames were of any kind of merit? They were utter dogshit and the woman couldn't sing. Almost as bad as The Rascals.


Deerhunter

and most of the ones already mentioned.


Screaming Tea Party

v good drummer girl, there's bloomin' loads of good female drummers around though. men be ashamed!


Screaming Tea Party

are awesome! Saw them a while ago, such a mental show. And yes v good drummer.

Los Campesinos
Arcade Fire
Broken Social Scene


Fucked Up

Enon

whats with the title of this thread?

i think bands that happen to have girls in them tend to be better than the average.


What a silly question but

Be Your Own Pet
Bearsuit
Blonde Redhead
Blood Red Shoes
Broadcast


fuck me

this thread is ridiculous, extremely sexist and pretty fucking insulting too.

It just takes music back to the fucking dark ages , its the kind of shit the NME would come up with.

Is it ironic? i dont know, but well done to Brusma and Errol_George for making moderaterock look like a cunt.

Moderatrock just screams Paul Weller/OCS/Cast ladrock really doesnt it.


Actually, whatever you think of moderaterock's post, your post is what takes music back to the dark

Whats really fucking insulting to me is people who try to censor debates like you're doing. Fair play to Brusma and Errol_george who've produced valid examples and disproved the original point.

But posts like this which take ubrage but refuse to counter are utterly offensive, utterly counter-productive to intelligent debate and only serve to restrict free discussion whilst lacking the actual gut to themselves counter the arguments they dislike.


what the fuck are you on about?

this thread is neither "discussion" nor "debate", and anyone who finds it offensive barely needs to justify their distaste since the main thrust of it is so totally fucking retarded

at best this thread is a "good bands where the bassist has a beard" megapointless list thread. At worst it's a "bands with asian people who don't smell like curry"


I agree


I would assume

it to be a Nirvana reference actually.


my old band!

www.myspace.com/diskoboymusic

who else...

The Sundays
Au Pairs
Delta 5
Polysics


Abba


forward

russia?

ctrl f says no one has said that yet...


I love ctrl f.

Afrirampo.


ctrl+f the ting tings

okay they suck, but i think their song might be growing on me.


You know that thread...

a while back when there was a suggestion that women in the industry come up against a patronising and backwards attitude....


what about it?

: )


Smashing

Pumpkins. They suck now though.


They have...

and Le Tigre in particular, were utter genius. Until their last album, that is.


oh, I should check them out but

I can't stand Bikini Kill, I mean can't STAND bk.


Le Tigre...

are a much different proposition. The whole thing's a lot more danceable and fun than Bikini Kill ever were, and there's a whole heap of other influences than just the lo-fi punk rock of Bikini Kill. The second album has a load of Luscious Jackson-esque hiphop songs on it.


MONO


I really hope

That this thread was a joke. Even so, it's a pretty shit joke.


Bands with human beings in that don't suck?

c'mon people! There must be SOME out there...


Drain

?


And another one...

The Modettes

And the Slits if someone hasn't mentioned them already (cannae be arsed scrawling up to find out).
