When the page loads there are four square-shaped images above a moving image. The first one has text that says 'download mp3s>>>>', the other two panels are links to the two songs on the site.

And no i haven't, who's she? :)

They are from Melbourne. They actually played at uni for Body Image Week. I missed it though. I miss ALL the good stuff! (even when I'm involved in organising it) :P

This reminds me of an article about women musicians in our Wom*n's Dept zine, and how people have low expectations of their musical talents etc. "They're good for chicks" etc.
:angry:

too fucking true. i hate it when people make a big deal about an act because they're female, as though to be female and be musically talented is extraordinary and uncanny and completely unexpected. like omfg they're so good, and they're womyn?? omg how bizarro world.
