List Of Riot Grrrl Bands
The following is a list of bands associated with the riot grrrl genre from the early 1990s to the present, mainly in the USA and UK.
NB: some of these bands pre-dated the original riot grrrl movement, while others may be more accurately categorised as grunge (see also 'foxcore'), queercore, punk, post-punk, no wave, digital hardcore or indie pop. Many bands did not identify with riot grrrl during the scene's first wave of the early 90s but became associated via personal and artistic connections or identified as riot grrrl by fans and/or the media due to aesthetic and genre similarities. On the same basis bands continue to be identified or self-identify as riot grrrl up to the present day.

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
