 Bikini Kill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bikini Kill is a riot grrrl punk rock band, formed in Olympia, Washington in October of 1990 (see 1990 in music).
Produced by Ian MacKaye of Fugazi, the album began to establish the band's audience.
In 1993 (see 1993 in music), Bikini Kill went to England and began working with Huggy Bear, releasing a joint recording together and touring the UK.

 Amazon.com: Music: Reject All American
Bikini Kill was one of the great grrrl bands of the 1990's and this album was only one facet in a long line of gems from the Washington state punk quartet.
Bikini Kill was a pure representation to how bands should operate which is totally free of major record label and to forego the typical rock aesthetic and the unspoken rules that goes with being a rock star.
Bikini Kill were one of the original riot grrrl bands in the early '90s.

 Bikini Kill and Team Dresch
Bikini Kill's politically charged punk attack is less refined and inclusive on the surface.
Although they remain rooted in the stripped-down aesthetic of unpolished punk, in a live setting Bikini Kill prove capable of sounding a hell of a lot tighter and more focused than they do on either of their CDs, Pussy Whipped and The C.D. Version of the First Two Records (both Kill Rock Stars).
When people complain that punk-rock bands like Green Day and Rancid don't have the same stuff that made punk so incendiary in the old days, they're often at a loss to put their finger on exactly what's missing.

 Bikini Kill
They grew up listening to new wave and punk rock, immersed in the '80s hardcore scene yet not finding a place to fit in with the boys.
These days, it seems like a lot of people have name recognition for the band but hardly anyone has listened to Bikini Kill.
They had just done an interview with a major music magazine and seen "off the record" remarks printed while other quotes were printed out of context to take on completely different meanings.

 Bikini Kill - Epitonic.com: Hi Quality Free and Legal MP3 Music
Their music was too abrasive to ever make it into the mainstream, but Bikini Kill's uncompromising combination of lo-fi hi-speed punk and female empowerment sensibilities helped pave the way for such prominent acts as Sleater-Kinney, Hole, and PJ Harvey.
This record was perhaps the high point in the band's rollercoaster career: a vitriolic, caustic exercise in feminist punk rock chaos that also managed to be experimental, artistic, and catchy.
Their first recorded efforts, including the Revolution Girl Style Now demo tape and their first Kill Rock Stars effort, a self-titled EP (both from 1991), revealed a band better at making political statements than playing music.

 TrouserPress.com :: Bikini Kill
Hanna's "Rock Star," a spoken-word piece on a single with Kill Rock Stars owner Slim Moon, is shattering, almost unbearably powerful; the EP by her pre-Bikini Kill band Viva Knieval, though, is dull, tough listening.
The sole album by the Fakes, Hanna's project with Nation of Ulysses' Tim Green (and a guest cast of thousands) is a concept record in search of a concept, though it includes a sweet, sad piece she sings along with a music box playing the theme from Love Story.
On the strength of its legendary live shows, Bikini Kill — the archetypal riot grrrl band — was packing clubs before it even had a record out.

 Bikini Kill - A Riot Grrrl Band
Bikini Kill were working on new songs at the end of 1997, but never recorded them.
While Bikini Kill appears to have broken up for good - it's members have moved on to other bands - Bikini Kill is still an influential force in both the movement and the music.
In the fall some Bikini Kill songs were featured on an episode of Roseanne.

In 1994, Bikini Kill released Pussy Whipped; their most potent effort to date, it featured the songwriting emergence of both Vail and Wilcox, a trend continued on 1996's Reject All American.
The point band of the early-'90s riot grrrl movement, Olympia, WA's Bikini Kill exploded onto the male-dominated indie rock scene by fusing the visceral power of punk with the impassioned ideals of feminism.
Jett produced the group's next single, the bracing "New Radio"/"Rebel Girl," and Hanna returned the favor by co-writing the song "Spinster" for the Jett album Pure and Simple.

 RollingStone.com: Reject All-American : Bikini Kill : Review
On their second full-length album, Bikini Kill take some surprisingly gentle turns, supplementing their fiery, bash-'em-in-the-face punk with sweetly seductive pop.
In two other songs, "For Only" and "False Start," Bikini Kill not only slow down the tempos and pretty up the melodies, but they also expand their instrumental vocabulary with a trumpet and a xylophone.
As much as Bikini Kill would be loath to admit it, in this era of Green Day and Elastica, the sheer range of songs on Reject All American reveals that the quartet is ripe for rock stardom.

 Le Tigre pushes girl power rock forward - PittsburghLIVE.com
First, there was Kathleen Hanna's band Bikini Kill and "Riot Grrl" -- the buzzword created to describe powerful female voices in punk rock in the mid-'90s, which was said to have inspired a generation of girls to pick up guitars.
The catchy, shout-along lyrics aren't afraid to provoke thought, but, considering the sheer angst of Bikini Kill, Le Tigre is surprisingly upbeat, clever and fun.
"We did some danceable songs in Bikini Kill, and those were always my favorite.

It seems apparent that newer lesbian punk eruptions including the Queercore Blitz East, a tour including the Kitty Kill; '90s riot grrl outfits such as Bikini Kill and Team Dresch; and even the pansexual struts of electro ice queen Peaches can be traced in part back to Phranc.
The longstanding, self-proclaimed "All-American Jewish lesbian folk singer" has been performing since the late '70s, getting her start amid the trash and junkies haunting the LA punk scene as guitarist for the nasty iconoclasts Catholic Discipline.
She then cut out on her own to record for such labels as Seattle indie Kill Rock Stars as well as for her own Phancy Records.

Though the Butchies have released a stellar album (their 1999's "Population 1975"), they have been washed out in butched Sleater-Kinney riffs and evidently have picked up more from the Indigo Girls than from Bikini Kill.
I guess it is supposed to be their mature record but Queercore has never sounded so softcore.
The Butchies are Melissa York and Kaia Wilson of the genre's pioneers, Team Dresche, along with Alison Martlew.

With its sampled beats, cheerleader choruses, and electroclash anthems, Le Tigre is a dramatic change in musical direction for Hanna.

Hidden among the pop/garage sound of the songs are the same messages Bikini Kill has always been about.
But instead of literally screaming about rape, incest, and empowerment, they actually sing about them, and back their messages with quality music.
With the release of their second full-length effort, Bikini Kill appear to have forgone all that made them the poster children of the riot grrrl movement.
