Yep, the riot girrls and others that later created that category have 
been around since the 70's.... it does seem to me that alanis is very 
much genericizing their music and trying to make it popular, cool & 
appealing to a mainstream audience---which is kinda beside the point. If 
you want that musical anger, there are tons of bands that do it with 
more sincerity and way more musical talent than her. Try Bikini Kill, 
Sleater-Kinney, Huggy Bear, oh they're all over the place.
