Probably my most common gripe is girls in band who can't and also say they can't play. It is stupidly annoying and really has to stop. Tell me the last male band you heard saying that?? Exactly, so keep quiet and get practising.
So one girl band that no one can ever accuse of being lumped into the silly little girl category is the amazing Nisennenmondai from Japan. Female prog rockers who tear up the stage and whose drummer I'm developing a mild obsession with. Watch the vid below and all will become clear...I know London seems to be set alight by Bo Ningen at the moment. I saw them play at Offset and it was cool however these understated girls show you don't need wild showmanship to get noticed just pure musical genius and personally as a fairly subdued performer myself, I find that really really inspiring.
