Music Monday?

I know nobody asked, but I decided to make a playlist of my 8 favorite female vocalists while waiting for something/anything to happen at work. Et voilĂ  (there's 2 songs by each):





  1. Mia Zapata (The Gits) 
  2. Joan Jett!
  3. Corin Tucker (Sleater-Kinney): It was hard to choose between Corin and Carrie Brownstein (hot), but since the list isn't about looks...
  4. Jody Bleyle (Team Dresch): Another tough choice between 2 great voices in one band, but Jody's voice just edges out Kaia Wilson's for me.
  5. Penelope Houston (Avengers)
  6. Kim Deal (Breeders/Amps/Pixies)
  7. Kathleen Hanna (Bikini Kill): Yes, I love Kathleen Hanna's voice.
  8. Adrienne Droogas (Spitboy): Maybe an acquired taste, but for me her powerful screams bring me right back to a particular time and place (that would be the Bay Area in 1994) when hope and rage were all mixed up and I was punk rock. :)
And this could all change tomorrow (except #1—Mia will always be #1), but there you have it.
