REGGAE & THE PUNK LEGACY
the Women's Story by Helen McCookerybook (from the TG list here!)
"At the core of British punk music and the punk subculture in the 1970's
was the concept of subversion, and the punk women in the London punk
environment who formed and joined bands exercised a double subversion:
not only the subversion associated with the subculture itself, but also
a subversion of sounds normally associated with ‘male’ music making in
the pop and rock arenas. If you listen to music by The Slits and The
Raincoats, for instance, they do have their own ‘sound,’ with space,
vocal harmonies and clear and distinctive bass-lines to the forefront."
