Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

And what's with discounting "girl bands?" can we then discount all-male bands? Also, Lynn-Z from Mindless Self Indulgence (the drummer, too), all of The Butchies, Hole...

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Honestly, if this guy hasn't heard of the Pixies, his opinion is irrelevant.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Did Mitch Mitchell sing on any of Hendrix's albums? Do backing vocals count? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Apparently I'm feeling bull-headed today (this is the second "yeah, but" I've posted in 5 minutes), because (and I'm sure this is NOT the point that was being made) I have totally bemoaned the male-dominated-ness of rock bands. Why is it so common as to be unremarkable that a whole lot of the big-name bands (and a whole lot of the local/regional ones, as well) are all-male? I don't attribute it to a talent gap, of course. I think it's more likely an effect of music-scene culture.

Yeah, that. It's like how "no women" are brilliant sci-fi authors. Or whatever other field you want to name.

No romantic involvements!

Shit she's a singer.

Erase her from the Rock n' Roll file, Hec.
