By Pictolic https://www.pictolic.com/article/atypical-girls-representatives-of-the-punk-movement-from-the-70s-to-the-90s.htmlThese rare photos, published recently in Sam Nee's book "Atypical Girls: Styles and Sounds of the Transatlantic Indie Revolution" ("Untypical Girls: Styles and Sounds of the Transatlantic Indie Revolution"), show women from the world of alternative music. And all this against the background of the evolution of musical styles-from the appearance of punk in the UK in the late 70s to the American grunge of the 80s and even a little further.
