The Third Sex

Oddly, not many people seem to remember The Third Sex. They were an all girl band on the chainsaw label in the mid-late 90's. They released two albums, Card Carryin' and Back To Go. Perhaps of their similarity to the infamous Sleater-Kinney, they got forgotten in the shuffle. (actually, this is one of the few bands that actually sounds like Sleater-Kinney, at least to me)

Musically, it's more of a poppier dig me out or hot rock era Sleater-Kinney, with a little more jangle than riff. The vocals are little scratchier and a lot less powerful than Corin Tucker's. But, taken on it's own, it's pretty good indie rock.

Here is their second album, Back To Go.

It's too bad they've all but disappeared on the interwebs.

  1. Could you please upload this album again? I believe the upload links have stopped working and I've been searching for this particular Third Sex release everywhere. I'm a big fan! Thank you, and thanks for your awesome blog.
