Babes In Toyland [and Kat Bjelland]
 
Babes In Toyland = definately one of my top 3 favorite bands. Kat Bjelland's voice is amazing, and her face when she screams .. orgasmic. She's also plays t'guitar pretty well. Who else loves this band as much as I do?

I've only ever heard one song, the song they played on 1991: The Year Punk Broke. It enduced toe-tapping, and Joe Cole dug it. They're pretty good from what I've heard.

i don't use this word for any other artist or band but babes in toyland deserve it:

OVERRATED

i think they are a waste

Anngella 04.21.2006 07:05 PM

Why do you think that?

Everyneurotic 04.21.2006 07:10 PM

i have fontanelle and i found it very uninteresting (and i gave it many listens), i found it very boring. then i saw the year that punk broke and it was just these girls making a racket with no sense of nothing. i thought it was like "look at us we're GIRLZ and we play noise!!! isn't it revolutionary?"

when i listen to bikini kill (for example) i listen to their energy but also to some motivation going on thru it all, and they also play songs; not just screaming feedback and yelling in a dull way

Anngella 04.21.2006 07:16 PM

Hm well, I guess it's the way you look at it. I never looked at it as "girls playing noise" ..I find many of their songs to be catchy, but meh, if you don't like it I can't force you to~

For the record Bikini Kill is fucking ace.

I know .. I didn't imply that you did :P
It never hurts to give something a second chance ..you said you have Fontanelle? May I suggest Handsome & Gretel, Bluebell, and Jungle Train (her high pitched screaming in this song makes me quiver)

I know Kegmama loves them like you do Anngella.

I loved Kat Bjelland's contribution for Guitarrorists all those years ago, but Babes in Toyland I don't devote much energy to really. They're not bad or anything though.

FRACTUREDSUNSHINE 04.21.2006 08:11 PM

fontonalleeee wuzz real good. Amazing production dude on that album too. Defintly one of the better grunge bands. 7 year bitch was my other favorite.
+ who could forget L7!!!!. babes is toyland totally rocked on the year punk broke.

marleypumpkin 04.21.2006 08:13 PM

I just don't even know why there are BIT haters. It's fucking kick ass chick punk. It's not a philosophical band asking the questions of life, it's just chicks w/ guitars kicking ass. How coyld anyone hate that?

Anngella 04.21.2006 08:15 PM

^Just like every band there are people who love it, and people who hate it. Sometimes it's just hard for people to accept the fact that their music taste ISN'T the best in the world, and that there are actually people with opinions contrary to theirs~

marleypumpkin 04.21.2006 08:20 PM

You're right. I'm not criticizing anyone, I just don't see how people read so much into this group. I didn't.

Laila 04.21.2006 08:50 PM

LOOOOOOOVe them!!! i listen to them everday in the car on my way to school. i really should stop cause it's gonna cause me to have an accident one day! hahah
