I myself am a girl and don't listen to any bands with female singers. I personally don't like the sound of their voices as much, and think they aren't well-suited to heavy rock and metal music.

Ah no really I do think shes quite the talent, but she did dilute Ash slightly.

Yeah, probably... I guess she was too good for the band. That's the problem with girls in a male rockband...

Kim Deal, for instance...Always preferred the Breeders to Pixies

I agree with your point some women exploit their sexuality, but Charlotte Cooper did say in an interview "I dance around a lot and find them easy to move in." about her mini skirts.

Yeah but that's just something whores say.

It would probably be easier for her to go fully naked at that rate then...

Well they need summat to backup their stage show when it finally starts to sink in that they're a piece of Sh it band. But for now we'll just have to be content with standing in the front row

In the words of the Subways: Oh Yeah.
