BootsyGraham 05.11.2008 01:14 AM

L7 and Bikini Kill

How about some Sleater-Kinney?
The Evens would be great.
Siouxsie & the Banshees
Patti Smith!
PJ Harvey
And just for fun, give her Trout Mask Replica.

They don't have to be all girl bands do they? Because you can give her some other cool stuff...

Cat Stevens
Elliott Smith
Jeff Buckley
John Frusciante
Josh Klinghoffer
Funkadelic
A Tribe Called Quest (I Left My Wallet In El Segundo)

When I was a little younger then that, I listened to a ton of Nirvana, some Zeppelin, and whenever I was on an airplane for some weird reason, I would listen to The Verve (Urban Hymns) and Fatboy Slim. When I was 14, I really got into The Red Hot Chili Peppers which helped influence my love of funk music.

Deerhoof - "Friend Opportunity." Simply an amazing album on so many levels (and the fact that something played and sung with such child-like innocence and exhuberance could have deeper levels of meaning is in itself one of the levels).

PAULYBEE2656 05.15.2008 06:27 AM

stereolab
daisy chainsaw (fuck byop)
numbers
pixies
greatest hits of indie compilations
merzbow
lightning bolt

whatever, just play happy joyful good music and the kids will reciprocate. they are probably gonna listen to the complete opposite you want them to when they hit 16 anyway... dont force the issue.....

Death & the Maiden 05.15.2008 06:42 AM

Ramones
Sex Pistols
The Cure
The Smiths
Siouxsie & the Banshees
Sonic Youth (I'd start at Sister)
The Slits

i'm imagining a sick image of a grown man in his forties playing stuff out of his truck out loud infront of a junior school and smileing very strangely while he watches young preteen girls approach his van to ask him what songs he is playing.

I don't think you still need this advice but I'll just post this shit anyway because I'm feeling nostalgic for my young teen days. I was once a 14 year-old girl (5 years ago, actually) so here are my recommendations:
I got into Sonic Youth when I was 14 and, at that time, I especially loved Confusion is Sex and their song "Starpower". I also got into the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' "Fever to Tell" (mostly because of their song "Date With the Night"), Sleater-Kinney, Dead Kennedys' "Fresh Fruit...", Radiohead, Interpol, The White Stripes, and I was obsessed with Nirvana and other good grunge. This was all after my nu-metal phase.
For more contemporary stuff, maybe Vampire Weekend?? Shit, I dunno what popular things the kids are into these days. Sorry.
Also, Pixies would be good; and some David Bowie.

Cantankerous 06.06.2008 11:06 PM

babes in toyland, L7, hole, etc.

uhler 06.07.2008 12:50 AM

The bass is awesome!

pop punk will eat itself 06.30.2008 09:59 PM

Hmmm, If I were a young girl I would love anything by Stereolab, Flaming Lips and Sufjan Stevens.

frades 07.15.2008 11:30 AM

luscious jacksons, nelly furtado

screamingskull 07.15.2008 11:37 AM

at 14 i was just getting in that whole Riot Grrrl scene.

I'd recommend Veruca Salt, and Sleater Kinney.

MellySingsDoom 07.15.2008 11:50 AM

For a real punky reggae party vibe, pick up the first Slits LP, "Cut". Lots of great tracks on there, plus a v nice cover of Marvin Gaye's "I Heard It Through The Grapevine".

"Do a runner!/do a runner!/do a runner!/do a runner!"
