Typical Girls: The Story of "The Slits" (Paperback)

Wild, defiant and startlingly inventive, The Slits were ahead of
their time. Although they created some unique hybrids - dub reggae
and pop-punk, African rhythms, funk and free jazz - they were
dismissed as being unable to play. Their lyrics were witty and
perceptive while their influential first album challenged
perceptions of punk and of girl bands - but they were still
misunderstood. And that infamous debut album cover, with the band
appearing topless and mud-daubed, prompted further misreadings of
the first ladies of punk. Author Zoe Street Howe speaks to The
Slits themselves, to former manager Don Letts, mentor and PIL
guitarist Keith Levene and many other friends and colleagues to
discover exactly how The Slits phenomenon came about and to
celebrate the legacy of a seminal band long overdue its rightful
acclaim. Too long seen as a note in the margin of the history of
rock, The Slits at last get a fair hearing in this revealing
biography.
