Women
Women was a Canadian indie rock band formed in Calgary in 2008. The group consisted of Patrick Flegel, Christopher Reimer, Matt Flegel and Mike Wallace. The band's experimental style, which eschewed the polished post-punk revival sound for lo-fi production techniques and eerie, dissonant soundscapes, proved influential on the post-punk scene of the 2010s onwards.
Their debut album Women was released on Chad VanGaalen's label Flemish Eye on July 8, 2008 in Canada and on Jagjaguwar in the United States on October 7, 2008. In October 2010, shortly after the release of Women's second album Public Strain, the band went on indefinite hiatus following a fight on stage at a show at Lucky Bar in Victoria. The group eventually dissolved following Reimer's passing in 2012, with Matt Flegel and Wallace reconvening as Viet Cong (now named Preoccupations), whilst Patrick Flegel started performing as Cindy Lee.
