Bio

Bikini Kill est un groupe de punk rock américain originaire d'Olympia, État de Washington. Formé en octobre 1990, le groupe est considéré comme précurseur du mouvement riot grrrl. De par son propos anti-sexiste et radical, Bikini Kill a inspiré de nombreux groupes punk féminins des années 1990, 2000 et 2010 (tels Big Joanie (en) ou Pussy Riot).

Bikini Kill is an American punk rock band formed in Olympia, Washington, in October 1990. The group originally consisted of singer and songwriter Kathleen Hanna, guitarist Billy Karren, bassist Kathi Wilcox, and drummer Tobi Vail. The band pioneered the riot grrrl movement with feminist lyrics and fiery performances. Their music is characteristically abrasive and hardcore-influenced.

After five major releases (two full-length albums, one split album, one EP, and one demo album), they disbanded in 1997. The band reunited briefly in 2017, and then on a more permanent basis in 2019, with various musicians in place of Karren. In 2025, Jeff Mezydlo of Yardbarker included the band in his list of "20 underrated bands from the 1990s who are worth rediscovering".
