Along with <a href="spotify:artist:0gvHPdYxlU94W7V5MSIlFe">Bikini Kill</a>, Bratmobile spearheaded the riot grrrl revolution of the early 1990s, battling the long-standing dominance of men within the punk rock community to help empower a new generation of female musicians and fans. Comprised of singer Allison Wolfe, guitarist Erin Smith, and drummer Molly Neuman, Bratmobile made their debut at 1991's International Pop Underground convention, a landmark indie music festival mounted in Olympia, Washington by <a href="spotify:artist:1qHR9DMfOJQjvWLEfMZQlG">Beat Happening</a> frontman and <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22K+Records%22">K Records</a> honcho <a href="spotify:artist:4L0x6V9ckwc4QhR069mk9M">Calvin Johnson</a>; after a handful of singles -- with members spread out between California, Washington, and Maryland, recording was a logistical nightmare -- the trio finally released an LP, Pottymouth, in 1993. 1994's The Real Janelle EP was Bratmobile's final studio date, although a July 1993 BBC broadcast was issued the following year as The Peel Session EP. In the wake of the group's demise, Neuman joined <a href="spotify:artist:6PPXzT2CUtpQ83maCsza6Q">the Peechees</a>, while Wolfe and Smith reunited in <a href="spotify:artist:1LdA2Q0GE08HyoCdjbBbxa">Cold Cold Hearts</a>. Bratmobile re-formed in March 1999 to play a series of dates as the opening act for <a href="spotify:artist:4wLIbcoqmqI4WZHDiBxeCB">Sleater-Kinney</a>; the new album Ladies, Women, and Girls was released in fall 2000. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi
