Atom, the female drummer for Beijing band Hedgehog, talks about being a girl in a band:

“I think any girl who plays in a band is special… I started to like rock ‘n’ roll in college because Xiao Wu, the drummer of Queen Sea Big Shark introduced me to some really good stuff. Rock ‘n’ roll is like looking at yourself in a mirror — you see who you are…
My father wants me to be famous overnight like the ‘Super Girls.’ But I think the Super Girls add nothing to our culture at all. They’re just a fad, people without good music becoming famous.”
