Yes. I'm sure they've been discussed to death here and everywhere else, but I love how they clearly did things on their own terms and found a sound which really sets them apart in the soundscape, not just in terms of female punk bands, but music in general. I've pretty much been a fan since I discovered their cover of Heard It Through the Grapevine in the late 90s or so.

edit:

I also thought this was a charming return to music
