Sleater‐Kinney

In November 1995, Sleater-Kinney delivered an electrifying performance at Stinkweeds in Tempe, Arizona, just around the time they were surging forward with their career. This live show came shortly after the release of their self-titled debut album in 1995, which laid the groundwork for their groundbreaking sound and prominence in the riot grrrl movement. The raw energy and fierce lyricism displayed in this recording encapsulate their early spirit and punk ethos. Interestingly, this was also a pivotal period as the band was beginning to gain traction within the indie rock scene, and would soon release their follow-up album, "Call the Doctor," in 1996, which solidified their influence. This blend of vulnerability and power in their live performances helped shape the band's identity, resonating deeply with audiences eager for authentic expressions in music.
