So what is it about angry girl rock that I love so much? (you mean what is it about music that I love so? haha I think we all already know the answer to that) Definitely not a feminist matter- I really don't consider myself a feminist. I think it's the heavy guitar and drum sound mingled with way too clever lyrics. I love that heavy sound. Anyway, I began the day off in the morning listening to angry grunge (alternative with a mix of hard rock/punk/metal/indie) girl 90's (basically from 1990-2002) rock. You know, the kind that just makes you want to jump on your bed and completely rock out head bang and extreme air drum (or air guitar, whichever you prefer- but personally I'm an air drum kind of girl) while jumping up and down until you're out of breath and thus filling your brain with amazingly tingle sensation endorphines. Don't you just love that stuff? Utterly awwweeesomeeeee. Yes, I am enunciating the word out as such spelled in a funny voice of coz.
You remember that movie Josie and The Pussycats that came out in 2001 with Rachel Leigh Cook? Well, I absolutely love the rock songs from that movie. It's so great. Don't hate until you have a listen. The lead vocalist is Kay Hanley from Letters to Cleo!
Some more personal favorite 90's angry girl listings:
1. Letters to Cleo (major one, major love)
2. Save Ferris (technically ska punk- but still so great)
3. Moonpools and Caterpillars (soo great)
4. The Breeders (formed by Kim- awesome bassist from the Pixies! yes the same Kim that makes me want to learn how to play electric bass guitar)
5. Garbage
Some angry girl non-90s category favorites (since they're definitely not grunge rock)
1. Fefe Dobson (remember how cute her stuff used to be?)
2. Metric
3. Rilo Kiley (not so angry but still awesome)
4. Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Makes me want to stomp my feet and never stop moving. All hail rockstars. (:
