Is 12 too young for the Queers? Certainly if she was a boy I'd recommend
that, starting next year: no adolescent male could resist songs called "I
Can't Stop Farting" and "Ursula Finally Has Tits."
I'd throw in Go Sailor's self-titled album from 1996 too: it's a little
scrappy and very "indie" sounding, but if I had a 12-year-old daughter,
it's a record I'd want her to hear. "See, you can be a woman doing this
sort of thing without being the Donnas and going 'Look! We're women!
Doing this sort of thing! And we're women! You can tell by how much we
talk about being women! And have you noticed our tits yet? Here they are
again, just in case!'" Further strong recommendations for the Aislers Set
(featuring Amy Linton, who was Go Sailor's drummer) and Henry's Dress
(which was her other early band).
