for the people arguing that this is not grunge or whatever, just think there was basically 3 veins of "the grunge scene" back then. Nirvana represented the mostly punk aesthetic, Pearl Jam was more based in classic rock, and Alice In Chains more of the metal aesthetic. When Kurt died, I think that took away the punk feel to "grunge" leaving only Pearl Jam and AIC as the main initial influences that later bands evolved from why bands like Creed and whatever sucked ass. Unfortunately bands like Mudhoney and Babes in Toyland became after thoughts in the grunge world because their sound wasn't close to the surviving Grunge mainstays. David Grohl could've tried to carry the legacy but decided that corporate rock was better suited for his business interests
Dinosaur Jr. Listen to interviews wuth both Butch Vig and the members of Nirvana and they themselves admit a pop connection. They weren't ashamed of it and infact it embodies gen X and grunge it was about both repulsion at what was commercial and obbsession with through childhood nostalgia warped by cynicism and backlash rage into an art movement. Like it or not The Beatles were Pop. Nirvana made their version of grunge rock by intertwining warped Pop melodies. QUALITY songs as in Pop with a capital P not the pish that came to represent pop in the last 4 decades. Bands like Black Flag and Live were Punk grunge
Babes weren't really grunge, though they were working in the same space and with similar elements. That said, they definitely were NOT riot grrrl. A lot of people mistake "riot grrrl" to mean "angry music made by women in the '90s," which is not the case-riot grrrrl was basically a cult in the woods with Kathleen Hanna as its poster child, made up almost exclusively of Evergreen State College students. The majority of those bands were not so much bands as they were feminist art projects. Babes in Toyland were not part of this for both obvious geographic reasons, as well as ethical ones; Kat's lyrics were not overtly political or concerned with feminism per se.
Agreed. This is more punk than anything. It sounds closer stylistically to a mashup of X-Ray Spex, The Cramps and Destroy All Monsters than anything to do with any of the grunge set. Not that it really matters, though. If you like it, just call it good ass music and enjoy!
It was more akin to noise rock or art rock, like Sonic Youth. Weird tuning and muting in the guitar riffs, feedback and atonal elements, and of course Kat's vocal insanity. Really, Babes were more influential than they were influenced by others.
It’s really shitty and ignorant of you to call Riot Grrl a cult. It was groundbreaking in that women were representing themselves in the punk scene and talking about important social issues that were otherwise ignored. They also did have several bands like Sleater Keeney that released albums to critical acclaim.
Cool song, but what's up with the description of this video? "Babes in Toyland were not part of the grunge movement being located in Minneapolis, but rather were part of the underground riot grrrl punk genre" - That's the opposite of what they were! The Babes have repeatedly denied being a Riot Grrrl band. They were a Grunge group.
Quentin Lejas well I can't possibly know who first gave them that label but in general they are considered a grunge/riot grrrl band, probably because they were active back when grunge/riot grrrl bands was very active and since Babes In Toyland had a similar sound to those bands they automatically got labeled as one of them.But I do know they never considered themselves riot grrrl personally.
goddamn I LOVE her vocals
That riff, the dead-note harmonics, that VOICE: OMG is this what it feels like to be in ❤..?
Whatever this is called, it rocks.
Stubbed my toe running to your house
Broke my leg running to your house
Lost my head running to your house
Broke my crown running to your house
Oh my God
Is this what it feels like to be in love?
Is this what it feels like?
Oh my love
It feels like God
Just you shut my mouth
Just try and shut my mouth
Stubbed my toe running to your house
Broke my leg running to your house
Lost my head running to your house
Broke my crown running to your house
Well, oh my God
Is this what it feels like to be in love?
Is this what it feels like?
Oh my love
It feels like God
Just you shut my mouth
Just try and shut my mouth
Mad pilot fly
Just try and shut my mouth
Mad pilot fly
This was my first Babes in Toyland song, years upon years ago. I was hooked after that.
This song brings me so much joy. OG love for you ladies. fuck yeah dudes.

Pretty much this.
Justin Bogenschutz Nirvana were pop grunge they took influence from the melodic of the 60's Beatles and Beach Boys
froggy8030 There are so many things wrong with what you just said...

😂@@msnewsenior
wish they were more known. Nirvana is the only band people ever think when they think of grunge
Ikr
They toured with Nirvana and they had music videos on mtv
When I think grunge I think Mr Clean.
They don’t consider themselves grunge, they’re from MN.
Babes in Toyland hated being called "Grunge" or "riot grrrls" they considered their music just plain "punk rock".
Just like Kurt Cobain.
@@JeremyB1993 Kurt was a total riot grrl.
Wailing Wimmen of Wongo. FANTASTIC!🕺
