Pussy Whipped

PUSSY WHIPPED
 
 
Pussy Whipped  is the debut full-length album of punk rock band Bikini Kill.  It was released in 1993 on Kill Rock Stars.  The album includes the track “Rebel Girl”, which is #27 on the Rolling Stone list of “Most Excellent Songs of Every Year Since 1967”, a playlist assembled by the magazine in 2006 to celebrate its 1,000th issue.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

I am still learning about riot grrrl myself; but the above album, Pussy Whipped by Bikini Kill (their second) is a recent acquisition (in vinyl I might add).  The album is an unadulterated blast of fury that is a compelling if somewhat challenging listen.
