In this far-reaching anthology, David Ensminger delves underground to explore the oft overlooked community of women who shaped the punk scene. There is a common thread of women being excluded and gatekept from the hardcore music scene but this anthology challenges that notion and shows that women have still been able to overcome, kick ass, and shred alongside the best of them.

Biographies, interviews, band anecdotes, and never-before-published photos showcase the talent and artistry of bands like Bikini Kill, The Guttersluts, Bratmobile, Spitboy, the Germs, The Slits, and dozens more. Through its intimate aesthetic analysis and raw zine-like presentation, this is an essential resource for anyone looking to discover, rediscover, and cherish punk history.

Written by David Ensminger with a foreword by Katy Otto of Trophy Wife. Published by Microcosm in 2021. Paperback, measures 8.5 x 5.5 x 0.3 inches, 160 pages. ISBN 9781621065517
