Why they matter: Because women belong onstage, not backstage
Talk about role models; no band has done more than Sleater-Kinney to show up
the B.S. that rock 'n' roll is a man's game. With their
... more thrilling,
hard-charging music and the amazing, goddess-level howling of
singer/spirit-channeler Corin Tucker, Sleater-Kinney made some of the very best
records of the '90s; offerings such as 1997's "Dig Me Out" and 1999's "The Hot
Rock" represent the high-water mark for American post-punk, a torrent of
emotion, melody, and distortion put to big-boom beats.
