Girls to the Front: The True Story of the Riot Grrrl Revolution - Sara Marcus
Girls to the Front is the epic, definitive history of the Riot Grrrl movement—the radical feminist punk uprising that exploded into the public eye in the 1990s, altering America’s gender landscape forever. Author Sara Marcus, a music and politics writer for Time Out New York, Slate.com, Pos, and Heeb magazine, interweaves research, interviews, and her own memories as a Riot Grrrl front-liner. Her passionate, sophisticated narrative brilliantly conveys the story of punk bands like Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, Heavens to Betsy—as well as successors like Sleater-Kinney, Partyline, and Kathleen Hanna’s Le Tigre—and their effect on today’s culture.
Anyone read this?  I really liked Riot Grrrl: Revolution Girl Style Now!.

Then you will LOVE this book because it’s even better than Riot Grrrl: Revolution Girl Style Now! It’s the closest thing to the definitive guide to riot grrrl in my opinion.
