She-Rock
By Karuna Gurung
BangkokRecorder | 15.03.2006
This Friday at Pla Dib, BangkokRecorder celebrates lady rockers in our
first underground party. Here, we pay homage to key female bands in
rock history. We're not giong to give you a comprehensive list of the
countless women in contemporary music, but just offering a little
taste of CHICKS who ROCK.

While drawing from '60s garage rock, the rise of angry, anarchical
punk music also has a lot to owe to one rocking chick, Patti Smith
(not to be confused with Scandal frontlady Patty Smyth). Smith was
known as "punk rock's poet laureate," bringing a feminist and cerebral
streak to this fresh new genre. Her album Horses (1975) has been
acclaimed as one of the finest rock releases of all time and proved
influential to punk rock bands in the
mid-'70s.
