Bratmobile – Pottymouth (CD)
Product Details
Pottymouth arrived in 1993 on Kill Rock Stars as one of the defining documents of the riot grrrl moment, a raw, scrappy debut that felt less like a produced record and more like a transmission from a movement in real time. Wolfe's confrontational delivery and Smith's jagged guitar work captured exactly what was happening in Olympia and D.C. before the mainstream press co-opted and flattened it. This reissue includes a booklet that deepens the artifact.
Along with Bikini Kill, Bratmobile spearheaded the riot grrrl revolution of the early 1990s, battling the long-standing dominance of men within the punk rock community to help empower a new generation of female musicians and fans. Comprised of singer Allison Wolfe, guitarist Erin Smith, and drummer Molly Neuman, Bratmobile made their debut at 1991's International Pop Underground convention; after a handful of singles-with members spread out between California, Washington, and Maryland, recording was a logistical nightmare-the trio finally released Pottymouth in 1993. - By Jason Ankeny, Allmusic.
