Yesterday (2/12/14), famous Riot Grrl band Sleater-Kinney took to Reddit to promote their recent reunion. Below are the top 10 things that were learned from the IAMA. See the full IAMA here . 1. Why the band don't use Bass? "Funny thing but I don't really love low end. That big bass sound that hits you in your gut is unpleasant! Not having a bass allows for the drums to occupy an interesting space in the music, which I really love. Also, bass players often make those funny faces." - Janet Weiss 2.
