This is a compilation of angular "70s, early "80s radical female-fronted post punk aggro-pop. After a long stint of male dominance during the "70s, with only a few scattered exceptions to prove the rule, the birth of punk manifested the dawn of a new self-confidence: awkward girl bands like the Slits, Au Pairs or German variant Mania D. Kick-started by provocative pop actionists like Valie Export in the early "70s, this new feminist attitude was picked up and perpetuated with her musical sisters in mind. Nevertheless, this compilation does not dwell on the political statements behind the scene"s artistic emancipation, but rather highlights its singers" newfound musical self-confidence. Features Maximum Joy, Ludus, Jajaja, Bow Wow Wow, Nicolle Meyer, Delta 5, Rip, Rig and Panic, New Age Steppers and more. Crippled Dick Hot Wax. 2005.
