Biography

Alternative rock band from the American Pacific Northwest. Formed in Olympia, Washington (USA) in 1994, then moved to Portland, Oregon. Went on "indefinite hiatus" in 2006. Reformed in 2014. Sleater-Kinney (the name is taken from a local road name in Lacey, WA ) were in the middle of the Riot Grrrl scene in the 1990s, and they were one of the few to survive the inevitable backlash (along with [a=Allison Wolfe] and [a=Kathleen Hanna]). Originally, the band was [a=Corin Tucker] and [a=Carrie Brownstein]'s side-project. The Australian-born [a=Laura Macfarlane] became the band's first permanent drummer in late 1994. In 1997, [a=Janet Weiss] became their new drummer. After a few albums recorded with [a=John Goodmanson], they went into an unfamiliar studio with [a=Dave Fridmann] in late 2004, to record their first album for Sub Pop. In the summer of 2006, they announced an "indefinite hiatus", and they played their final U.S. gigs in August. They were in other bands before, during, and after Sleater-Kinney's 11 year run: Corin has been in both [a=Heavens To Betsy (2)] and [a=Cadallaca], Carrie in [a=Excuse 17] and [a4589038], Laura in [a=Ninetynine], and Janet in [a=Quasi (2)]. In 2019 Weiss announced her departure from the band, which is now in its core a duo: Carrie Brownstein - guitar, vocals Corin Tucker - guitar, vocals

LYRICS

you got your words
but they make you stuck
now you can't feel
now you can't want
it's just too messy
it's just too think
is it too scary
is it too real

it is one desire
burning hot and bright
it could fill up the sky
it could fill me up
worth the trouble
it is brave to feel
it is brave to be alive

you write it down
you strategize
never go over
your little lines

but i'll breathe the air
i'll stop the clock
i'll touch the sky
and say what i want
