1	Live Through This (1994) more music like this by Hole add to wishlist Courtney Love completely revamped Hole before recording their second album, keeping only Eric Erlandson in the lineup. That is one of the reasons why Live Through This sounds so shockingly different from Pretty on the Inside, but the real reason is Love's desire to compete in the same commercial alternative rock arena as her husband, Kurt Cobain. ... see all copies from £3.09! new only from £9.24!
2	Dig Me Out (1997) more music like this by Sleater-Kinney add to wishlist Having reinvented the girl-punk wheel with Call the Doctor, Sleater-Kinney continues to expand the boundaries of the form with the stunning Dig Me Out. Leaner and more intricate than its predecessor, the record is remarkably confident and mature; instead of succumbing to the pressures of "next big thing" status, the trio finds vindication in all ... see all copies from £5.45! new only from £8.06!
3	Pretty on the Inside (1991) more music like this by Hole add to wishlist With the assistance of producers Kim Gordon and Don Fleming, Hole recorded a brutally uncompromising debut with Pretty on the Inside. The jagged white noise and buzzing guitars articulate Courtney Love's pent-up rage as well as her lyrics, and while that might make the album difficult to absorb in one sitting, it also makes it a singular ... see all copies from £6.67! new only from £8.32!
4	All Hands on the Bad One (2000) more music like this by Sleater-Kinney add to wishlist Sleater-Kinney switched gears on their follow-up to the challenging, introspective The Hot Rock, delivering their brightest, most accessible album to date with All Hands on the Bad One. That's partly due to a renewed assurance in craft -- the arrangements here are the most refined of the group's career, and their performances the most polished. ... see all copies from £4.02! new only from £9.29!
5	Reject All American (1996) more music like this by Bikini Kill add to wishlist see all copies from £3.71! new only from £8.58!
6	Smell the Magic (1991) more music like this by L7 add to wishlist On 1991's Smell the Magic, L7 begins to find the sense of melody to complement its distorted punk guitar assault. The band deserves ultimate praise for writing from a completely female perspective at all times, and the fabulous "Fast and Frightening" just might be the ultimate "riot grrrl" anthem. "Shove" pleads the case for mosh pit etiquette, ... see all copies from £6.11! new only from £7.98!
7	Hungry for Stink (1994) more music like this by L7 add to wishlist While L7 sounds tremendous on Hungry for Stink, the band has neglected to write any songs. But when you're caught in the middle of a massive guitar grind this good, songs don't matter much. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from £3.09!
8	The Hot Rock (1999) more music like this by Sleater-Kinney add to wishlist Expectations for Sleater-Kinney's fourth album were stratospheric, with the raging, tuneful feminist catharsis of Call the Doctor and Dig Me Out having garnered near-universal critical raves and outlandish media hype. Afraid of falling into a predictable rut, though, the band bravely pushed its range of expression into more personal, subdued, and ... see all copies from £8.06! new only from £8.06!
9	Pussy Whipped (1994) more music like this by Bikini Kill add to wishlist A more experimental follow-up from these punk rock furies. While there's still lots of vitriol, the songs are more varied and even catchy. "Rebel Girl" is a manifesto just waiting to be discovered, and the rest of the album sees the band occasionally adding fun to their recipe for punk chaos. A good starting point. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from £6.81! new only from £9.26!
10	The Singles (1998) more music like this by Bikini Kill add to wishlist The Singles is not a Bikini Kill career overview, but rather a compilation of three 45-rpm-only releases recorded for Kill Rock Stars in between 1994's Pussy Whipped and 1996's Reject All American. All told, this material is some of the band's most accessible, highlighted by the three songs from the Joan Jett-produced "New Radio" single; one is ... see all copies from £8.32! new only from £8.32!
11	America's Sweetheart (2004) more music like this by Courtney Love add to wishlist see all copies from £3.09! new only from £7.85!
12	One Beat (2002) more music like this by Sleater-Kinney add to wishlist Having consolidated their strengths with All Hands on the Bad One, Sleater-Kinney revived the ambition of The Hot Rock on their sixth album, One Beat. John Goodmanson gives the group its cleanest-sounding production to date, which brings out all the new trappings in the ever more sophisticated arrangements. "Step Aside" boasts trumpet and sax, ... see all copies from £7.40! new only from £10.78!
13	Bricks Are Heavy (1992) more music like this by L7 add to wishlist Though they hailed from sunny L.A., L7 became the poster girls for grunge in 1992, with the meteoric success of their third album, Bricks Are Heavy. While their previous efforts had sounded sloppy and uneven, Nevermind producer Butch Vig helped the girls obtain a tight, compact sound on Bricks, pushing them to focus on their songwriting to boot. ... see all copies from £3.87! new only from £7.43!
14	This Is Rock Anthems [Cleopatra] (2006) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist The two-disc This Is Rock Anthems begins with Rick Derringer's "Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo," which was certainly a hit, but an anthem? Quiet Riot's version of Slade's "Cum on Feel the Noize" comes much closer and it's easy to get excited about; same with Pat Travers "Boom, Boom (Out Go the Lights)" and Black Oak Arkansas' "Jim Dandy to the Rescue." ... see all copies from £11.36! new only from £11.36!
15	Ladies, Women and Girls (2000) more music like this by Bratmobile add to wishlist see all copies from £8.09! new only from £8.09!
16	Spanking Machine (1990) more music like this by Babes in Toyland add to wishlist Courtney Love was briefly a member of Babes in Toyland in the mid-'80s, and listening to the group's debut album, Spanking Machine, more than a decade after it first came out, one can't help but wonder who ended up borrowing from whom. In many ways, Spanking Machine sounds like the blueprint for the music Love would make during Hole's first ... see all copies from £4.96! new only from £7.98!
17	Gato Negro (1996) more music like this by 7 Year Bitch add to wishlist see all copies from £4.21!
18	Arkansas Heat [CD/12"] (2002) more music like this by The Gossip add to wishlist Arkansas Heat revels in the soulful, blues-driven rock & roll niche that the Gossip so carefully contrived with 2000's That's Not What I Heard, but with a rawer, almost live-sounding production. And it plays like a frisky night walk during the summertime in the French Quarter. Contributing to the sultriness of the EP is charismatic singer Beth ... see all copies from £4.58! new only from £7.28!
19	Movement (2003) more music like this by The Gossip add to wishlist Picking up where Arkansas Heat left off, on Movement the Gossip blazes through another ferocious set of bluesy garage rock steeped in lust and betrayal, both of which are exemplified in the truly stunning opener, "Nite." The simplicity and power of Kathy's drumming and Nathan's guitar work provide the perfect foil for Beth Ditto's gut-wrenching ... see all copies from £9.89! new only from £9.89!
20	Call the Doctor (1996) more music like this by Sleater-Kinney add to wishlist Sleater-Kinney's masterful sophomore effort Call the Doctor fulfills all the promise of the group's debut and more, forging taut melodicism and jaw-dropping sonic complexity out of barbed-wire emotional potency. The emergence of Carrie Brownstein as an equal shareholder in Corin Tucker's vision is the key -- her four contributions (particularly ... see all copies from £5.27! new only from £7.98!
21	Introducing Cadallaca (1998) more music like this by Cadallaca add to wishlist Cadallaca, in the same vein as fellow Pacific Northwesterners Bikini Kill and Sleater-Kinney, writes bare-bones pop songs using a Farfisa organ, electric guitar and a simple drum kit. Their debut, Introducing Cadallaca -- ten short bursts of raw grrrl power -- shows the band is capable of rocking out on tracks like "June-n-July" and "Two Beers ... see all copies from £4.57! new only from £10.51!
22	Kill Rock Stars (1991) more music like this by Various Artists add to wishlist Kill Rock Stars is an excellent 18-track various-artists collection capturing the essence of early-'90s indie-rock pop underground. It's divided equally between amateurish indie-pop, abrasive punk and riot grrrl, featuring many of the best underground bands of that time, including Bratmobile ("Girl Germs"), Mecca Normal ("Narrow"), Bikini Kill ( ... see all copies from £10.67! new only from £10.67!
23	Humid Teenage Mediocrity: 1992-1995 (2006) more music like this by Jack Off Jill add to wishlist Riot grrrl '90s act Jack Off Jill set themselves apart from bands like L7 and Bikini Kill with a unique ploy: acid-tongued lyrics belted from the itty-bitty voice of frontwoman Jessicka. The singer's childlike timbre partnered with typical alt-rock guitar thrash was a cleverly ironic statement, marring demure femininity with unforgiving and ... see all copies from £7.15! new only from £7.15!
24	Three (2001) more music like this by The Butchies add to wishlist Less akin to the stylistic grab bag of 1998's Are We Not Femme? than the largely punk-fueled fury of its follow-up, Population 1975, 3 is the aptly titled third full-length from Durham, NC's the Butchies. Unlike their debut's mishmash of punk, disco, and folk, the queercore trio's subsequent efforts have settled impressively into rough and tumble ... see all copies from £4.02!
25	The Song Is Love (2003) more music like this by The Quails add to wishlist On the Quails' third record, it's clear that they won't quit until they see some social reform. Like they did on Atmosphere, the politically aware trio (now with an album on the suitable Mr. Lady and a tour with Sleater-Kinney under their righteous belts) stomps all over the establishment. Here they seem to be a little angrier, protesting and ... see all copies from £9.41!
