old that probably saw them live 10 times over the years. Live: hit and miss. Also, albums after Hot Rock are generally rubbish. HOWEVER, when on form they're brilliant.
i've always assumed they were slightly shouty 'slacker' indie rock (which isn't my sort of thing) but i've probably misjudged them terribly. What song will convince me to like them?
they're slightly shouty at some points but it's mostly just really good guitar music and really great vocals. I'd probably listen to the hot rock first.
all-girl post-hardcore (not actual post-hardcore, but with a similar bone structure, as in they sound like indie rock punk rock made after hardcore) with killer melodies and hollered and/or melodious vocals.
Sleater Kinney have always been a hit and miss band for me. I'm a 36 year

It confuses me that people seem to think the woods is their best album when yeah
it's totally not
wait
you just called 'All Hands On The Bad One' and 'One Beat' rubbish.
...wut.
no everybody in the world loves them
that's why they've had a string of #1 hit singles and albums
well that's why I'm asking if maybe it's just that not everyone's given them a proper listen
i don't think i know any of their stuff

I wouldn't really put them in the same category as 'slacker' stuff

dude, they are so far from 'slacker'
all-girl post-hardcore (not actual post-hardcore, but with a similar bone structure, as in they sound like indie rock punk rock made after hardcore) with killer melodies and hollered and/or melodious vocals.
just so great.
Just did a Google Image Search
Bit frumpy
loved 'Get Up'...
thought the rest was a bit meh.
Obviously they weren't a patch on The Organ.
you're so weird
Ahhh The Organ
I saw them at the Cardiff Barfly once by accident. Steven Smith is still a tune.
Most of my non-music-nerd friends think they're musically rubbish and I only like them cos they're women.
When I'm listening to them they're my favourite band
all their albums are good.
except all hands on the bad one - don't really like that one
why?
it's just as good as the others.
If you have an issue with The Woods. I have an issue with you.
unless it's with the mastering
They're in the running for being The Greatest Band of All Time.
they are the absolute best
I hate the Buffy St Marie vocals
I much prefer Wild Flag
I love
One Beat lots and lots and lots. It's the only one i have.
give them a proper listen
and get spotify or something.
I've listened to Hot Rock or whatever it's called
on Spotify. I'm just lazy.
Bloody good album, bloody good album - I heard Bono played guitar
