Here we have a band that was a staple of 924 Gilman in the early 1990's. Fronted by one of the best female punk singers of alltime, Cinderblock, Tilt were just plain awesome! Imagine Janis Joplin fronting a punk band and you will get it! This release was on Lookout I think and then they moved to Fat. I always thought that they had a little X in them too.

I must say that Cinder does have one killer voice...I'm not a big fan of many female fronted punk bands, but I dig her.
ReplyDeleteShe has that "it" thing with her voice. Real bluesy and such. I only saw them once and they were quite good!

Puuhh, whats that Crap?
ReplyDeleteA "yodeling" Chick with a voice that is disharmonic to the (very boring) music.
This girl better wash dishes and should sing only under the shower. In case, I hope that she will not be my neighbour
Thumbs down - Sorry
Schellack thanks for the comment. Apples and organges I suppose. Me? I personally like them alot and think she is a great vocalist. But I also think Penelope (Avengers), Beki (Vice Squad), Exene (X) and Pauline (Penetration), Poly Styrene (X Ray Spex),Siouxsie (Banshees) are all good vocalist too. Just my opinion.

Thanks for "Play Cell." I still have my Tilt shirt from the Play Cell tour with their sigs. I saw them several times and when they opened up for Green Day. I miss those days....
