Bikini K*ll is an American punk rock band formed in Olympia, Washington in October 1990. The band features vocalist and songwriter Kathleen Hanna, guitarist Billy Karren, bassist Kathi Wilcox, and drummer Tobi Vail. Their music is characterized by fervently DIY ethos and distinctly feminist stance. Known for its radical feminist lyrics and fiery performances, Bikini K*ll is often credited with instigating the Riot Grrrl movement in the early '90s via their political lyrics, zines, and confrontational live show. Despite disbanding in 1997, Bikini K*ll has maintained their relevance and influence among music fans and critics. The band’s iconic catalog still resonates with individuals craving an outlet for their anger and dissatisfaction with societal norms and systemic injustices.
