Ep123: No Excuse For Sexism Review

Happy International Women's Day!

To mark the occasion, we're looking back at an album that made a splash back in the day: No Excuse For Sexism.

Released in 1998, it was the first album to feature an all-female line-up, with all-female or female-fronted bands: Clothes Peg, Flying Pills, Sideshow Judy, Psycho Sonique and Astreal.

How does the album hold up after all these years? Was it an accurate example of what our female indie musicians had to offer? And where are Flying Pills and Clothes Peg today? (No, really - give us a shout if you know)
