"Woman, led by the twin vocal/guitar towers of Australian native Kristian Brenchley and Mexico Cityโs Brett W Schultz, and featuring the skinniest and coolest looking rhythm section in town, the black-clad Skeleton Boy and Alex Velasquez, remain one of the rawest, most brutal, and least compromised ensembles in the tri-state area. But donโt be frightened, its only rockโnโrollโฆ"
-- NEW YORK NIGHT TRAIN
"Woman, the band split international-playboy-style between NYC, USA and Mexico City, DF, and led by an able AustralianโBeefheart splatter guitar over caveman rhythm section and split ursine vocals; sounded like Link Wray catching up to Black Flag, or something from Nick Cave, too... Coming LP should be goodโtoo-sick rock from two sick cities."
-- Chris Ziegler, The District Weekly
"WOMAN is a Death-Squad - WOMAN is the dope-antidote-Gonorrhoea for antechrist humors - Full of elation EvZone Heat- Full of Erogenous Decadence From Ancient Proto-Romantism Bad Apple Souvenir to The New Fall-Krachic-Growing Pale World - Seeking Drive for our Poor Urban Pubic Bone Lost Contemporary Souls"
-- Blackbird M. L. Bone
"WOMAN sucked. I think the whole band was on heroin."
-- some asshole from Cleveland
WOMAN has pierced eardrums across New York City at venues like Mercury Lounge, Glasslands, Cake Shop, The Annex, and Union Pool. Tours have taken the band through Cleveland and Columbus, OH; Las Vegas, NV; Boston, MA; and Los Angeles, Long Beach, and San Francisco, CA. It has also played live to radio audiences on San Jose, CA's KFJC and Columbus, OH's CD101.
Recorded with Mr. Martin Bisi at Brooklyn's legendary B.C. Studios, the WOMAN debut LP was released August 16, 2009 on BANG! RECORDS.
2) A band from UK
ใปEarly 2001 Guy Forks plays Guitar & Kristian plays Drums 2003 Steven Lavender joins to play Bass. Sometime in 2004 Yohei Yashi is recruited to sing. Early 2005 The band play a gig in London. Mid 2005 The band make a record, Das Hexer. Early-mid 2006 The band playing out and having fun, including summer UK tour with amazing angular punk band Chronicity. August-November 2006 The band spend time at John Hannon's No Recording studio to record a new record 'Silver Wolf Dog' 6 songs, 11 and a half minutes of distorted funk post language be-bop and well bimmied dancefloor fist pumpers. Its the new wave of mums gravy - proper. January 2007 Woman do a 6 day 'North end of Britain' tour and its all jolly good fun. There were even kids with Myspace glowsticks at one show. They'll be back.
3) Germany (Cologne)
Indie pop band WOMAN from Cologne, Germany. Founded in 2012, the trio took their time to perfect their signature sound that spans synth-pop, JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE-infused singing and guitar licks that give a nod or two to SANTANA. At some point, a CD of their demos made its way to BILDERBUCH producer Zebo Adam, who went on to produce their debut EP Fever, a triumphant celebration of funk-pop with shades of electronic elements. Fortunately for us, the collaboration proved to be fruitful, as he also produced WOMANโs first album Happy Freedom, which aims to carry that spirit onto a full-length record. Marvelous City is the first glimpse of that debut LP.

Woman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fear not to relay my crime
The crime is loving the forsaken
Only silence is shame
And now I'll tell you what's against us
An art that's lived for centuries
Go through the years and you will find
Against us is the law
With its immensity of strength and power
Against us is the law!
Police know how to make a man
A guilty or an innocent
Against us is the power of police!
The shameless lies that men have told
Will ever more be paid in gold
Against us is the power of the gold!
Against us is racial hatred
And the simple fact that we are poor
My father dear, I am a prisoner
Don't be ashamed to tell my crime
The crime of love and brotherhood
And only silence is shame
With me I have my love, my innocence
The workers, and the poor
For all of this I'm safe and strong
And hope is mine
Rebellion, revolution don't need dollars
They need this instead
Imagination, suffering, light and love
And care for every human being
You never steal, you never kill
You are a part of hope and life
The revolution goes from man to man
And heart to heart
And I sense when I look at the stars
That we are children of life
Death is small
This song is a powerful ballad that speaks to the struggles and oppression faced by women throughout history. It begins with the singer, a woman, acknowledging her status as a prisoner for a crime she has committed. However, she reassures her father not to be afraid or ashamed of her crime. She reveals that her crime is simply loving those who have been forsaken, and in the eyes of society, remaining silent about this love is considered shameful.
She goes on to explain what works against them - a law that has been in existence for centuries, blackening the pages of history. The law is backed by immense strength and power, represented by the police and the corrupting influence of money. Racial hatred and poverty are also mentioned as factors working against them.
Despite being a prisoner, the singer finds solace in her love, her innocence, and the support of the workers and the poor. She believes that rebellion and revolution do not require financial resources, but instead, they need imagination, empathy, suffering, light, love, and care for every human being. She highlights that those who fight for justice and equality do not steal or kill; they are the embodiment of hope and life. The revolution, she states, spreads from person to person, heart to heart, with a sense that we are all interconnected as children of life. In the face of death, she finds comfort in the knowledge that it is insignificant compared to the power of love and the pursuit of a just society.
Line by Line Meaning
Father, yes, I am a prisoner
Dear Father, I am confined
Fear not to relay my crime
Do not hesitate to share my offense
The crime is loving the forsaken
My wrongdoing is showing love to the abandoned
Only silence is shame
Silence is the only disgrace
And now I'll tell you what's against us
Let me disclose what opposes us
An art that's lived for centuries
A practice that has endured for ages
Go through the years and you will find
If you examine the years, you'll discover
What's blackened all of history
That which has stained the entirety of history
Against us is the law
The law stands in opposition to us
With its immensity of strength and power
With its vast magnitude of authority and dominance
Against us is the law!
The law is set against us!
Police know how to make a man
Law enforcement knows how to manipulate an individual
A guilty or an innocent
Whether guilty or innocent
Against us is the power of police!
The might of the police works against us!
The shameless lies that men have told
The audacious falsehoods men have uttered
Will ever more be paid in gold
One day will be compensated in riches
Against us is the power of the gold!
The influence of wealth is against us!
Against us is racial hatred
Racial animosity is directed at us
And the simple fact that we are poor
And the mere reality that we are impoverished
My father dear, I am a prisoner
Beloved Father, I am imprisoned
Don't be ashamed to tell my crime
Do not feel embarrassed to disclose my offense
The crime of love and brotherhood
The wrongdoing of displaying love and unity
And only silence is shame
And silence alone bring shame
With me I have my love, my innocence
I possess my love and purity
The workers, and the poor
The laborers and the impoverished
For all of this I'm safe and strong
With all of this, I am secure and resilient
And hope is mine
And hope belongs to me
Rebellion, revolution don't need dollars
Resistance and upheaval do not require wealth
They need this instead
They require this instead
Imagination, suffering, light and love
Imagination, hardship, enlightenment, and affection
And care for every human being
And concern for every individual
You never steal, you never kill
You never steal, you never murder
You are a part of hope and life
You are a component of hope and vitality
The revolution goes from man to man
The revolution spreads from person to person
And heart to heart
And through heartfelt connections
And I sense when I look at the stars
And I perceive, as I gaze at the stars
That we are children of life
That we are offspring of existence
Death is small
Death is insignificant
