Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I want to expand my playlist, do you have any recommendations?

Some of my current favorites include Kiki Rockwell, Shara Nova (My Brightest Diamond,) Jesca Hoop, Mirah, Feist and Rising Appalachia.

Edit: There are too many of you to thank individually, so just know my list has expanded drastically and you're all appreciated.

Oh I adore a female led band or group! Most of this is punk or indie

  • Bikini Kill
  • Amyl and The Sniffers
  • Sleater-Kinney
  • Brody Dalle
  • Deap Valley
  • Rezz (this is EDM / goth dance music vibe)
  • Mannequin Pussy

I've got more but don't want to drone on haha. I am always down for convos about music!

I haven't heard of any of these. Super looking forward to some new music. By all means, list more!

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Oh I think you'll particularly enjoy Amyl and The Sniffers. That's where I would start :)

Here are some more from my archives:

  • Wet Leg
  • Panic Shack
  • Grandma's House
  • Karen Dio
  • The Regrettes
  • Courtney Barnett
  • Diet Cig
  • Skating Polly
  • Bratmobile
  • Dream Nails (I love their song "Vagina Police" the most)

Lady! You’re making me fall in love with you all over again (in a total platonic way) lol

All those bands kick so much fucking ass and Vagina Police rocks so hard, one of my favorites. I’ve heard a few of the ones on your list, but I’ll be making notes of others so I can set them up on my mp3 player.

Also, for OP, there is an Apple Music playlist called Riot Grrl that has some really good women’s punk bands. Quite a few that the lovely Velma listed are on it, but a few others too. If you don’t have access, I can see about writing down the band names for you.

The amount of times I've yell-sung at the top of my lungs "V A G I N AAAA P O L I C EEEEE" is almost embarrassing to admit hahaha

Riot grrrl music changed my life as a teenager! I love that you know most of these bands, too, you're so freaking COOL hahaha

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

Bwahahahahaha I once drove into the grocery store parking lot, windows down, singing as L O U D as possible

V A G I N AAAAA P O L I C EEEEEE

such a fucking kick ass song!

Ohh thank you!! I've been meaning to check out more die spitz and I haven't heard of the others.

[–] Domi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Saw them in my city recently and they were sooo good. Maybe not the wildest band on record, but they tore the house down live.
