Female Musicians I Would Body Swap With / Cisco Hayward Because, I mean, come on. Like, who wouldn’t, ya know?
5. Alice Glass
Do I even have to explain? Like, I mean, she’s so cool! Have you listened to Crystal Castles? Have you even heard that shit? That wasn’t even her “full artistic vision” for crying out loud, and it was still FUCKING SWEET. Come on, you know what I’m talking about. Who wouldn’t want to be this blue-haired industrial noise-pop badass? Who the fuck wouldn’t want to become this person?
4. Grace Slick
I mean come on!!!!!! Have you heard “Somebody to Love”? Grace Slick is what Janis Joplin would’ve been if she was talented. Grace Slick is one of the quintessential female vocalists, and yeah I know, “girls singing,” whatever, but like Grace Slick made that shit COOL. Grace Slick is the queen of psychedelic rock, no butts about it.
3. Yasuko Onoki
Okay, I bet none of y’all even know who she is, so what I want you to do is go listen to “Fetch” by Melt Banana right now, and then when you come back you will see why I want to become this woman. She is so freaking cool, Melt Banana is like this weird blend of metal, shoegaze, and punk thrown into a blender and pitch-shifted up five octaves. Do you hear the noises this woman makes on that album? She is a punk matriarch! And not like a shitty no-fi punk matriarch, like this girl knows what a decibel is. She’s like super smart and hella talented. 36
