You're a cultured person! Also, the solo albums from Brody Dalle after The Distillers are the GOAT!

Why, thank you. I hadn't even registered that she has released solo albums. Might have to revoke my 'cultured person' card 😅 I'll get on to those asap. Thanks for the info, friend

First I'm aware of was under the Spinerette moniker, in 2009. Its on the pop-electronic side, but it's chock fulll of bangers. But she reverted back to punk roots later. I heavily recommend the one from 2014, Diploid Love.

I must also thank you, since I didn't know the first three bands you mentioned! Point me to the good stuff!

And I'll be sure to check those Dalle recommendations out. Again, thanks!

My pleasure. I"m a bit obsessed with Speedy Ortiz at the moment. They've made 4 albums that are all incredible. Frontwoman Sadie Dupuis doesn't care too much about conventions and her chord progressions and song melodies are odd and a bit dizzying. But in the end the loose ends are tied up and they hammer out some totally dope altrock riff. It's a very 90's altrock vibe but they are original. And they like to push the pedal to the metal and rock hard. Thats my jam 😁
