Female heroes of the late 70ies and early 80ies like The Slits, The Raincoats or Malaria! appear alongside contemporary classics like Björk, Le Tigre, Peaches or Chicks On Speed. But what sets the compilation apart from all the other compilations around the topic of "Women and Music" is that it is not just a collection of what everybody knows already, packaged under the misleading slogan of "Women in Rock", instead this compilation creates a movement of its own, containing 2/3 EXCLUSIVE tracks, showcasing some of the finest (and mostly unreleased) tracks from a worldwide underground network of female musicians, even following in the tracks of some of the classics like Tina Weymouth (Tomtom Club/Talking Heads), Cosey Fanni Tutti (Throbbing Gristle), Siouxsie Sioux (Siouxsie and the Banshees), or Ana Da Sliva (The Raincoats) by featuring their latest productions.
This specially priced and packaged 3 CD set contains 60 tracks, (of which 40 exclusively appear on Girl Monster), an 8-page Girl Monster Newspaper with exclusive texts by Lucy O'Brien (author of the classic "She-Bop") and others. Designed by Chicks On Speed and Factor Product. The 3 CD set has a playing time of more than 3½ hours.
Girl Monster was conceived by Alex Murray-Leslie from Chicks on Speed, and realised in conjunction with Anat Ben David and Chicks on Speed Records. Watch out for future volumes.

Great,
By listost (Lenox, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girl Monster (Audio CD)
I still listen to this electro/punk compilation occasionally after 2 years. This is because there are some are gems here. Rhythm King And Her Friends; Sir Alice; Cherry Sunkist; Scream Club; Robots in Disguise; Crystal Cookie.. Within a collection of 60 songs, you're bound to discover or rediscover some good stuff.

This review is from: Girl Monster (Audio CD)
I got this because I love Chicks on Speed. They are one of my favorite bands out there today. But I have to say this compilation isn't very good. The idea of having women musicians on 3 CD's is a great one, but the music suffers from mediocrity. A lot of the tracks I wouldn't even consider music, its just women talking away with a keyboard mixer in the back. I am not hearing the quality of musicianship here. With that said I'm not regretful that I bought it, because there are some good tracks here. Such as Chicks on Speed, Le Tigre, Pam Hogg and Ana Da Silva. Yeah the rest of it though thumbs down. Sorry
