Kill Rock Stars

Kill Rock Stars, founded in 1991 by Slim Moon in Olympia, Washington, became a vital force in punk and feminist music. Launching legendary Riot Grrl/Indie/Punk Rock acts such as Sleater-Kinney, Bikini Kill, and The Gossip, the label carved out a legacy rooted in DIY ethics, political urgency, and raw expression. Today, it continues to spotlight fearless, genre-defying voices across punk, indie, and beyond.
