	Smells Like Teen Spirit
		Since they had been talking about anarchy, punk rock and similar and other topics, Kurt took it to be a slogan in that vein.
		Hannah, however, had meant that Kurt smelled like the deodorant - the brand that Tobi Vail[?], her band mate, and Kurt's then girlfriend, wore.
		In Heavier Than Heaven[?] (ISBN 0786865059), Charles Cross' biography of Kurt Cobain, an argument is made that the song is a reference to Kurt's break-up with Tobi Vail.

	The Go Team (Writer's Block #6)
		We were all standing outside the garage at Tobi's house where we were practicing during the summer of '89 (935 Patterson).
		For this tour, the lineup was Calvin, Tobi and Billy Karren, who were already onstage by the time I made it to Maxwell's.
		Tobi and Calvin then switched places, which all three members would continue to do in between nearly every song, and things really kicked into high gear.

		Tobi: Your label is interesting to me because it is so small and seems to document stuff done by your friends and you seem to make it work, which I think is a hard thing to do.
		Guy: The tradition of weird packaging came about because when we were doing the first HGL 12" we were wracking our brain to think of a way to make a super cheap sleeve that didn't look like everything else.
		Tobi: How did being a part of the early DC punk scene effect the work you are doing now as an artist and label person?

	Printable Version
		And to every music theory junkie who demands precision rather than passion, Vail is an infection, tainting perfection with raw talent and a willingness to do things her way.
		It's what Vail has done for the last two decades, playing in bands like Bikini Kill and the Frumpies, sparking international movements like Riot Grrl punk and Ladyfest, and publishing zines like Pogo for Peace and Feminists Against Bush.
		But like everything Vail does, there's an urgency that hits you at gut level, coaxing you to be a splinter, too.

	The College Hill Independent
		Remember the old story about Tobi Vail, who spray-painted “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on the walls of a Portland club just to mock Kurt Cobain’s obsession with Kathleen Hanna’s deodorant?
		I mean, let’s be realistic: some mid-90s ladies were a bit turned off by the hard-to-like posturing of the riot grrl scene.
		Tobi Vail’s punk-princess condescension is admirable, but what about those down days when your pre-teen inner self just craves, well, bubblegum?

		As three-fourths of Bikini Kill (Tobi Vail, Kathi Wilcox and Billy Carren) and a member of the PeeChees (Molly Neuman), the Frumpies is a potential powerhouse of talent.
		Three guitars and drums fuel the driving force of the garage punk, and the band has a spirit reminiscent of Bratmobile's clamorous, tongue-in-cheek humor.
		This is not to say that the band hasn't kicked out some great material - it's just that the memorable songs are rare diamonds in the rough.

		One essay is by drummer and sometimes vocalist, Tobi Vail and discusses the riot grrrl movement and the band's mistrust in mainstream media.
		Also, the drumming by Tobi Vail is outstanding.
		Plus all of the county kids can relate to a song about "16 year old girls giving head to carnies for free rides and hits of pot." "Suck my left one" is also another classic and personal favorite of mine, with the message of taking one's abuse and turning it into one's power.

		Some find it ironic that the guitarist, Billy Karen (a.k.a Billy Boredom) should be male, but his skills on the guitar far outweigh his sex, making it a non issue.
		Tobi Vail, the groups drummer, who briefly dated Kurt Cobain, also moonlights on vocals on several of the bands songs.
		The most prominent band member, mostly via necessity as the singer, is Kathleen Hanna.

		So when I was looking for a record to review a few minutes ago I spotted the new Bangs disc, all decked out in Budmo Jiggler font, and I knew it was perfect for a Tuesday review for two reasons: It is altogether danceable and upbeat enough to wake me from an especially dull Tuesday.
		Guitarist Sarah Utter and bassist Maggie Vail (sister to Tobi Vail of Bikini Kill fame, who gave her sister a hand on the album by providing backup vocals, hand-claps and screams) share vocal duties, and new drummer Peter David Connelly rounds out the group.
		The Runaways-esque "Call and Response" starts the album off with a bang, probably the best track this six-song EP has to offer, as Connelly and the girls alternate between twenty or thirty seconds of full force, with drums pounding and more vigorous vocals, and well-timed break-downs.

		Preferring the RAINCOATS, YOUNG MARBLE GIANTS and THE TELEVISION PERSONALITIES to the GANG OF FOUR, Tobi uses simplicity and starkness as punctuation, creating space for notes to be felt and rhythms heard.
		The singing is classic Tobi Vail style, varying between SCREAMY SCREAMS and WHISPER-CORE.

		ormed in the summer of 2004 in Olympia WA by Tobi Vail, James Maeda and Chris Sutton, the Spider And The Webs sound is the result of many disparate factors, but is always minimal, peircing and melodic.
		Re-inspired to play guitar by nu post-punk groups like Erase Errata, Meltdown and Quixotic, Tobi's songwriting harken's back to her most musically innovative group, The Go Team.
		When they switch instruments it is clear their biggest influence is growing up in Olympia, listening to the first Black Flag single while looking at pictures of Mary Weis.

		Calling for "Revolution Girl Style Now," the group's fiercely polemical and anthemic music helped give rise to a newly empowered generation of women in rock, presaging the dominance female artists would enjoy throughout the decade.
		Bikini Kill formed in the late '80s at Olympia's liberal Evergreen College, where students Kathleen Hanna, Tobi Vail, and Kathi Wilcox first teamed to publish a feminist fanzine, also dubbed Bikini Kill.
		Seeking to bring the publication's agenda to life, they decided to form a band, enlisting guitarist Billy Boredom (born William Karren) to round out the lineup.
