Women, Sex and Rock'n'roll

Book excerpt: This collection of interviews with notable women performers from the rock world focuses on both new performers with a more radical approach and the more established, but still progressive, artists working today. Rock journalist Liz Evans talks to them about their experience of sexism in the music industry, the riot girl phenomenon, whether they see the recent proliferation of women's bands as a trend that's here to stay, their perception of rock music as a barometer of popular culture, and so on.
