Bikini Kill

Bikini Kill formed in the late '80s at Olympia's liberal Evergreen College, where students Kathleen Hanna, Tobi Vail, an...[more]

THIS ITEM IS A PRE-ORDER. WE EXPECT IT TO SHIP ON OR BEFORE THE JULY 21ST RELEASE DATE. VINYL FORMAT. Featuring punk feminist anthem "Rebel Girl" and produced by legendary Runaway's Joan Jett, New Radio is three aggressive punk rock songs demonstrating that Bikini Kill were more than a movement of slogans to be consumed in a package.

Insound LP+MP3! Purchase the vinyl format of Pussywhipped and you'll receive a link to download the MP3s for free immediately after check-out! VINYL FORMAT. An amazing find! A more experimental follow-up from these punk rock furies. While there's still lots of vitriol, the songs are more varied and even catchy. "Rebel Girl" is a manifesto just waiting to be discovered, and the rest of the album sees the band occasionally adding fun to their recipe for punk chaos. A good starting poin [ read more ]

The Singles is not a Bikini Kill career overview, but rather a compilation of three 45-rpm-only releases recorded for Kill Rock Stars in between 1994's Pussy Whipped and 1996's Reject All American. All told, this material is some of the band's most accessible, highlighted by the three songs from the Joan Jett-produced "New Radio" single; one is yet another re-recording of "Rebel Girl," which is justified by a driving, kinetic energy that makes the version on Pussy Whipped sound ta [ read more ]
