I've always had a soft spot for rock-leaning female artists/bands, and I'm currently on a major Juliana Hatfield binge. I was the guy that all my metal-head friends would make fun of for listening to bands like Sleater Kinney and Veruca Salt, and it always felt like I was in the minority when it came to taking women in rock seriously.
Is this something any of you can relate to? Are there any female artists/bands that hold a special place in your heart?
