In this far-reaching anthology,
David Ensminger delves underground to explore the oft overlooked
community of badass women who shaped the punk scene. There is a common
thread of women being excluded and gatekept from the hardcore music
scene but this anthology challenges that notion and shows that women
have still been able to overcome, kick ass, and shred alongside the best
of them. Biographies, interviews, band anecdotes, and
never-before-published photos showcase the talent and artistry of bands
like Bikini Kill, The Guttersluts, Bratmobile, Spitboy, the Germs, The
Slits, and dozens more. Through its intimate aesthetic analysis and raw
zine-like presentation, this is an essential resource for anyone looking
to discover, rediscover, and cherish punk history. Includes a foreword by Katy Otto of Trophy Wife.
