Posted in: A brief history of Japanese girls’ rock See in context

Lindberg is a girl band? Lindberg is a rock band? I like that Shiina Ringo was included, but nasal-quality?

Sad. Almost every example reinforces the cute pop stereotype, beginning with Princess Princess and ending with AKB48. In fact, most of these "artists" highlight the importance of marketing in music, and do a disservice to "girls' rock."

The writer seems to be infatuated with the love life of the selected artists, and thereby represents them as only being as good as their relationships instead of acknowledging them for their music.

Shonen Knife, Sekiri, Go!Go!7188, UA, Kojima Mayumi, ... So many other artists to choose from that actually rock.
