Chick Bands

Pretty awesome in general. Chicks are good at making music. I guess my chick-band-enjoying-section-of-my-life started with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, which isn't a chick band but has an awesome chick lead singer. There also seems to be this weird phenomenon where chicks rocking out is totally hot. If a chick rocks hard on some instrument, that totally adds like 3 points to her attractiveness. Come shining examples of chick bands would be a list that is sure to include Bikini Kill, The Coathangers, Le Tigre, Best Friends Forever, and many more that I'm too lazy to think of/name.

I'll now take this time to change the subject.

So Foxy Shazam is frickin amazing. They are this sweet random style band from Ohio and there music is awesome and inconsistent, but its their live shows that really set them apart from the rest. They have 3 albums each one being less and less chaotic than the first. I like the 2nd album the best because it has just the right amount of chaos while the 1st is a bit too much and the 3rd isn't quite chaotic enough. But their live shows are fintansticly jawsome. I've seen them three times, and while their set-list-making-skills are something to be desired (very unbalanced selection between the 3 albums), their stage presence and rockingness makes up for any downfall. The piano player is sweet.
