Albums I've Listened To This Month: 90s Grunge Girl Bands (March 2016)

09:37

Ok so I use Spotify (free version, but iPad has premium for some reason - take advantage) and I use Spotify to listen to music that is new say like on the alternative/indie charts so I can listen to new music. I also use it as a way to get out all my guilty pleasures too. And after listening to a few female grunge playlists, all the albums I have listened to this month have been from that genre. Some of these are bands I've never really bothered to listen to, and some I'd forgotten about and rediscovered.

1. L7 - Smell The Magic



A band I've only recently just discovered. They are so good. I'm really enjoying this album and their others too. Just listen to them and you'll like them too. Favourite songs: 'Fast and Frightening', 'American Society'. 


2. Sonic Youth - Goo



Not completely a girl band BUT I love love love Sonic Youth, and this album I can't get enough of, I even have it printed onto a tote bag. It's a perfect album and Sonic Youth are a cool band. Favourite Songs: 'Kool Thing', 'Mary-Christ'. 'Dirty Boots'.


3. 7 Year Bitch - Sick'em



I discovered this band thanks to Spotify, and I'm so glad I did. They are very -me- and I'd had no idea there were so many women heavy grunge bands in the 90s, and I'm very happy about this. The album is actually really good. Some songs are a little 'samey' but in general it's cool! Favourite Songs: 'Knot', 'Gun'.


4. Babes In Toyland - Nemesisters



I had heard of this band, and I've only briefly heard a few songs. After seeing them on Spotify I thought it was time I took a proper listen. They are a really good band, they are more of a heavier sound and each song on this album sounds very different. An all female band is something I love and it's even better to see alongside all the men creating sick music. Favourite Songs: 'Hello', 'Sweet '69', '22'.
