Released in 1979 the album was a triumphant moment not only for the punk movement but for women in music too. ⁠ As virgins to making composing and making music, The Slits were as DIY as they came. Taking inspo from their immediate surroundings in “punk London”, artists like Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood with SEX and various musicians, The Slits always aimed to push boundaries and question the status quo. With Cut they endeavoured to covert this feeling into sound and at the same time amalgamate a range of styles and motifs to make music that stood alone amongst its peers. ⁠ Like most punk bands of the past, and present, The Slits underwent a series of changes with the members of the band. Nonetheless, they always made music their priority, whether that meant them staying in or leaving the band. The original line-up saw Ari Up the 14-year-old German firecracker on vocals, Palmolive (Paloma McLardy) on drums, Viv Albertine on guitar and Tessa Pollitt on bass. While the foursome caused a riot, most notably as the support for The Clash on the ‘White Riot’ tour no less, they made their name on the punk scene as uncompromising musicians who weren’t afraid to fight for their right to play punk music just as men did. ⁠ With their performances fuelled by passion and rage, and often ending with a violence, The Slits quickly became synonymous with chaos. But with such a provocative conception The Slits began as they meant to go on, that was to subvert every misconception about femininity through their art. The release of Cut was a huge part of their feminist agenda and desire to create something of greatness. ⁠ ⁠ read the rest on our blog post⁠ #theslits #vivalbertine #palmoilve #tesspollitt ⁠ ⁠」6月29日 21時00分
