Product Information
- Typical Girls - The Story of The Slits Omnibus Press Series Softcover Written by Zoe Street Howe
- Wild, defiant and startlingly inventive, The Slits were ahead of their time
- Although they created some unique hybrids - dub reggae and pop-punk, African rhythms, funk and free jazz - they were dismissed as being unable to play
- Their lyrics were witty and perceptive while their influential first album challenged perceptions of punk and of girl bands - but they were still misunderstood
- And that infamous debut album cover, with the band appearing topless and mud-daubed, prompted further misreadings of the first ladies of punk
