REVOLUTION GIRL STYLE NOW
Revolution Girl Style Now was the first work by the punk rock band Bikini Kill. It was self-released in cassette form in 1991 and recorded at Yoyo Studios. The 1991 cassette was released for the first time on vinyl, CD and digital formats in 2015 via the band’s own label, Bikini Kill Records. The reissue includes three previously unreleased tracks: “Ocean Song”, “Just Once”, and “Playground”. (More from Wikipedia)
The title of the first album by Bikini Kill, Revolution Girl Style Now (1991) sums up what the band was trying to accomplish. Music and concert conventions were set aside so that female audience members could be closest to the stage, with women encouraged to tell their stories of sexual abuse during the performances.
