Well I was gonna start a thread about female fronted punk bands, but I might as well bring back this one. BTW, no, "chick punk singers" do not suck. You can wet yourselfs over your avrils and brody's all you want. But there are plenty of goodies to talk about. Joan Jett, who's basically been everywhere. The Slits, classic sh*t. Bikini Kill, the pioneer riot grrls. The Devotchkas, even Vice Squad has their moments. Right now, I really like Hang on the box, thats the Beijing group (I posted the cute little lead singers pics in the punk pictures thread). Her voice has got a little bit of riot grrl and a little bit of johnny rotten thing going on.
