In the early days of punk a few only female bands tried to get in touch with the male ruled rock music. The Slits in Britain were one of them and Bush Tetras were the equivalent across the Atlantic ocean. Both tried to show their very unique sound to a greater audience. While The Slits got their place in musical history Bush Tetras are one the forgotten bands from the late 70's. Their first releases were one of those me and a couple of lads used to listen to because they made a crossover of punk and funk before many others tried to to the same. Their sound was rough and dirty and we loved their guitars and vocals and kept them as a well known secret in our place. It is sad that we couldn't gave them a listen to other people because they weren't worse than many other British bands in this era. Their combination of punk and rock attitudes with funk and new wave were awesome. I think it is necessary to remember them at this little place in the net.
