Favourite punk bands with female singers?
What are yours. I would say my favourite would be Sleater-Kinney, Distillers, and Bikini Kill.
|
Gotta go with the Go-Gos. Sure, everyone knows them for Alex the Seal (I know - Our lips are Sealed) and the couple pop albums they did in the 80s, but they started as a punk band and their most recent album starts back towards it.
|
one word....... BLONDIE
|
Is this for bands with just female singers, or are bands that have both female and male singers included? Im going to assume that both are ok so Ill say:
Vice Squad Crass New York Rel-X (great people, do a lot for the scene) The Expelled Nausea A.P.P.L.E. |
go go´s ain´t punk bro. 45 grave with the incredible Dinah Cancer were unforgettable if you were alive in them days. Faith No More´s coupla gigs with the hideous Courtney Cobain were memorable as well. And, yes FNM was pretty fuckin punk back in the day.
|
Shit, I forgot all about X. Exene Cevenka. Was married to, and has a son with Viggo lord of the rings guy.
|
not punk, but thrash almost fits in the same scene: Holy Moses
|
Ya Blondie kicks ass.
|
Distillers, tsunami bomb, and TAT, are the only punk bands ive heard w/ female leads, all of em or good but i think i need to listen to more punk heh.
Only heard the peace,sex and tea song off TAT, goin round the extreme channel a lot atm, but its all good |
Crass, in my opinion.

tsunami bomb to win.
|
Is Jackoff Jill any good?
|
From what I've heard, Jackoff Jill is like... industrial goth, or a lesser variation of Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids circa 1993, just with females
|
Bread And Water
And Melt Banana Bread and Water can only be found on Soulseek |
tsunami bomb and the start
|
Lush and Romeo Void
|
neither one can be considered even remotely punk rock. That´s using the most flexible criteria.
|
Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Metric
|
Broken Social Scene have 2 good female singers, Feist has some good solo stuff outside the band too
|
The Donnas

They're really good, but punk... I don't know. |
Yeah, saw the punk part after posting. But hell, punk is a generally misused word anyway.
|
Jack Off Jill : Good, but not punk
In terms of pure punk, probably Sleater-Kinney If we go more loosely, probably the Pixies and Veruca Salt. |
Pauline Murry was in Penetration back in the 70s. She was good.
|
ill throw in the cranberries as well but not true punkpunk in my eyes
|
theres a band from berlin. early 90´s that were fairly big time in europe and none of you ever heard of. Jingo de Lunch. fucking incredible singer. try and find some. you´ll like.
|
Sioxie & the banshees, Patti Smith and Horrorpops
|
1. The Avengers: "Paint it Black"
2. Patti Smith "Rock n Roll Nigga" 3. X: Exene "White Girl" |
If we go more loosely, probably the Pixies and Veruca Salt.
I always preferred it when Frank was singing. Veruca Salt is fun to listen to. |
Bikini Kill
|
No one's mentioned the Plasmatics?
|
*grins*
I will. My favorites are Siouxie and the Banshees and the Plasmatics. I used to want to BE Wendy O. Williams.... 'least 'til I heard she was a junkie. *shrugs* I did a reasonable facsimile until I got clean, lmao, but still. Don't want to die, thanks. ;) Bryn |
Blondie, and my personal fav - Siouxie and the Banshees.
|
Bif Naked?
|
Shit man, a lot of those bands aren't punk
I know I'll get flamed for this but I don't even think Blondie was..... And then came Brody Dalle. yep, Distillers..raw power |
I'm not sure if Denali is punk but Denali - Normal Days is a good song none-the-less. I also like Sleater-Kinney, don't really know many punk bands with female singer though.
