Crass and Interrupters it is.

That Crass song is great - the album, Penis Envy, is still one of the great female-fronted punk albums of the genre and the lyrics are sharp and biting. Crass lets there be a bit more space in this song that some of their others, and it really brings the singing and lyrics into relief, which is great. Despite a lot of visually aesthetic imitators, this song is a great example of how Crass was really in a world of their own. Accept no substitutes or imitators.

And the Interrupters obviously I've made the case for before.

Yeah I always preferred when the ladies sang in Crass.

Voted for Au Pairs and Crass. First time hearing the Crass, this was really good.
