-But that's the problem? Not all solo female pop musicians sound similar the same way not all bands with 2 guitarists, 1 bassist, and 1 drummer sound similar. It's completely superficial and not at all a "genre". It's jarring because the author bothers to micro-genre all these rock bands then goes "LOL? Have a vagina? Sounds similar!"
-I'm talking about early 90's here, where PJ Harvey was harder alt rock, Tori was mostly piano and not all that hard, and Bjork was solely making house music. And yet! Vagina? Sound similar!
