Punk girl band The Mo-dettes formed in '79. I dig their song White Mice which can be found on the first Rough trade shop compilation. I found info about them and a snippit of this great tune on this webpage dedicated to women of 70's punk. I played this song on David Humphery's Wps1 radio show on friday (more on that later).
"Guitarist Kate Korus, who had previously played with the all-female bands the Castrators and also Slits.... Bassist Jane Crockford was a teenage runaway whose claim to fame was briefly sharing a flat with Sid Vicious and Johnny Rotten." -Woman of 70's Punk
