4 girls from Los Angeles - now signed to Rough Trade

http://flavorwire.com/43276/warpaint


Oddly enough it reminds of the music of Tasmin Smyth, daughter of
Daevid Allen & Gilly Smyth of Gong who, as one might imagine, had a
somewhat unusual upbringing.

She was dossing in Better Badges tape annex when she herself took a
demo into Rough Trade into 1980. Their response: "Too conventional!".

I don't think she ever went near a record label again.
