In front 50 Years ago Aretha Franklin called »Respect«, The Riot Grrrls rebelled in the 1990s and today superstars like Beyoncé are marketing a sexy version of feminism. The charts are full of female voices, but festival stages remain, Music magazines and club nights dominated by men. There are role models on every corner, every decade, in which women turn to guitar, Grab microphone or DJ software.
Each one has its own story. It's about self-empowerment, for anger, about equality, um Drugs and Rock’n’Roll, about sex and sexuality - and sometimes about menstruation. But above all about music. No matter, whether voices in soul, Battles im Rap, Guitar solos in rock, big hits in pop or tunes in techno. Entire encyclopedias could be filled with outstanding musicians and female bands. This book is more enjoyable reading than an encyclopedia, but there is a multifaceted insight into feminist music history.
In about 100 instructive, entertaining and personal texts are written by journalists, Musicians, Fans and friends about bands, that shaped them, about artists, that gave feminism a new facet, about favorite records, Lifetime Achievements and Songs, that they roar with - from the classic to the outsider's tip.
