L7 Unleash Punk Rock Fury At Express Live! 5.22.19
When I heard that L7 was making a stop in Columbus, Ohio on their Scatter The Rats Tour, I jumped at the chance to finally see them, having missed my opportunity in the 90’s. While they are described as an early grunge band, they are most definitely punk rockers but also influential in the riot grrrl scene. I couldn’t wait to watch them in action on the Express Live! Stage.
L7 Return with Scatter the Rats and new tour
In the late 80s, L7 crashed their way into the male-dominated punk rock scene and unleashed a fury that resonated with a lot of frustrated youth especially young girls. They released 6 albums and toured worldwide till 2001. Since reuniting in 2014, L7 has been on the road, writing new music and released a documentary in 2017 – L7: Pretend We’re Dead.
