In a 2013 interview with Stereogum, Potty Mouth bassist Ally Einbinder ’10 expressed discomfort with having her band automatically get labeled as a riot grrrl outfit. She argued: “Slapping the riot grrrl label on us just because we happen to be women playing a type of music that happens to be reminiscent of another era in time seems like a lazy conflation,” then maintained: “Gender does not equal genre!” Fair enough. While Potty Mouth’s upcoming second album SNAFU features women playing the types of confident pop rock/punk that have been associated with male-fronted bands, the lyrics of their songs do not necessarily display the same political bent that riot grrrl bands are known for.
