2006 release. Girl Monster tells a rich historical story, from the original girl monsters of punk and post punk to contemporary tricksters and electro-rock pranksters. Female heroes of the late '70s and early '80s like The Slits, The Raincoats or Malaria! appear alongside contemporary classics like Björk, Le Tigre, Peaches and Chicks On Speed. But what sets the compilation apart from all the other compilations around the topic of "Women and Music" is that it is not just a collection of what everybody knows already, packaged under the misleading slogan of "Women in Rock." Instead, this compilation creates a movement of its own, showcasing some of the finest (and mostly unreleased) tracks from a worldwide underground network of female musicians, even following in the tracks of some of the classics like Tina Weymouth (Tom Tom Club/Talking Heads), Cosey Fanni Tutti (Throbbing Gristle) , Siouxsie Sioux (Siouxsie and the Banshees), or Ana Da Sliva (The Raincoats) by featuring their latest productions. Deluxe packaging includes a fold-out newspaper. Other artists: Scream Club Vs.
