Newish Female-fronted/All Girl pop/rock bands.

Sonic Youth 37 · 09.11.2009, 06:37 PM

Does anyone have any recommendations? Lately I've been listening to a lot of Sounds and Vivian Girls and would like to find some more bands kind of like these, but I'm having trouble.

prussian blue

No, no loli Nazi pop.

Try the albums Souvenirs or How To Measure A Planet by The Gathering, they're amazing. but they dont sound anything like the 2 bands you mentioned lol

loubarret · 09.12.2009, 10:02 AM

One of the finest dutch bands.

But a small warning it's a bit gothic like.

Good stuff so far everyone! Especially BruteHeart and Dum Dum Girls

atsonicpark · 09.12.2009, 08:04 PM

How newish? If you haven't gotten into Bride of No No, that's probably one of the best female vocalists (Azita, also solo artist, also in Scissor Girls) in one of the craziest bands ever...

Fire on Fire (about 1/3rd of their songs; they have 5 vocalists, but the female one in particular is amazing)
Mass Of The Fermenting Dregs
Toddle
Bleach'03
Danger?Gang!
Inugami Circus Dan
Personz
Eu?phoria
Chamonchy
Clothoid+Doll
Head Phones President
Mosaic.wav
Sonic Coaster Pop
Plus-Tech Squeezebox
Baal
Rose de Reflicul et Guiggles
Cross Cradle
d[di]

are all interesting.

Sonic Youth 37 · 09.12.2009, 08:32 PM

I'm not really keen on dredging up bands from the 80s/early 90s right now or anything too crazy/experimental/hard-to-find-stuff-by.

Keeping It Simple · 09.13.2009, 06:02 AM

Two of my all time faves are eX-Girl and Afrirampo, both from Japan.

atsonicpark · 09.13.2009, 07:12 AM

I just named some Japanese bands -- he ain't interested! Haha.

mindless automatons in the thrall of a psychotic master...

flophousefloozie · 09.15.2009, 01:30 PM

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. I saw them a few weeks ago, and it was a great show.

You might also like Thee Oh Sees, although I don't know if they count as newish.

atsonicpark · 09.15.2009, 03:28 PM

toddle - dawn praise the world

one of the best albums ever, enjoy.

^ Yeah that record is great. Every project Number Girl spawned has been immensely enjoyable.
