"...Cut is a living, breathing document forty years later, immediately influencing the likes of The Raincoats, through to Nineties bands such as Hole and Sleater-Kinney and modern-day artists on both sides of the Atlantic, like Merrill Garbus’s Tune-Yards, or Rachel Aggs’s bands Shopping, Sacred Paws and Trash Kit. Cherry Red’s 2016 compilation, Sharon Signs To Cherry Red, is a brilliant dive into the kind of DIY, female-led scene that existed in Britain in the early to mid-Eighties, many of the artists taking cues directly from The Slits and the short, intense trail they blazed. Ari Up’s holler and warble unmistakably informed Björk’s vocal style, and the visual aspects of how they presented themselves have informed female performers from Madonna and Lady Gaga in the pop world to Karen O in the indie scene."
