VA Doll Fest: Doll Fest - Out of The Doll House Vol. 1 Comp 2xLP (Pink Marble Vinyl)

The riot grrrl spirit never really left, it just needed better packaging. Doll Fest is the annual celebration of punk, alternative, and indie acts with a feminist backbone, and this limited 2xLP compilation pulls the best of it out of the basement and onto pink marble vinyl that looks like a sunset over a demolished shopping mall.

Out of the Doll House Vol. 1 is the kind of comp that reminds you why physical music still matters. It documents a living scene, not a nostalgia project. These are bands making noise right now, carrying a lineage that runs from Bikini Kill and Sleater-Kinney through to every DIY all-ages show that ever smelled like spilled beer and conviction. The fact it comes pressed on limited pink marble and sunset swirl vinyl means it's also just genuinely beautiful to look at, which matters when you're pulling it off the shelf for the hundredth time.

Double LP compilation. Limited edition, individually numbered pressing. Pink marble and sunset swirl vinyl. USA origin. Various artists drawn from the Doll Fest lineup.

Fans of: Bikini Kill, Sleater-Kinney, L7, Worriers, The Linda Lindas.
