They were over seas , like UK they were huge!!! Just never got that in America, they said it in a doco, over seas they were playing arenas and getting limos then they get back to the states and it's small clubs. Maybe it's Japan or somewhere. Actually it's europe, THEY SAID IY IN THIS DOCO, DID U LISTEN, OR u meen states?
Wow, just wow. When Kat talks, she sounds so sweet and innocent and yet when she sings, she releses so much power that you just can't believe the sweet person you were talking to...can relese that much. Babes in Toyland are kickass.
Got to hang with Lori in Austin while on tour a few years ago. Freakin down to earth and rad to hang out even for a short while. Minneapolis has been home to some excellent musicians. No matter how well known they become. Much love and respect. Always. You are our mothers.
I only got into this band about 3 weeks ago after years of reading about them, i regret taking so long to listen to them, fucking inspirational! I like every song iv'e heard of there's, its crazy lol.
People like Kat and Courtney have always existed and always will. The only difference was, in the 90's, people actually paid attention and they got famous, so you guys know about them. Ever heard of the Coathangers, Little Claw, Anemia Prevails or any of the other millions of loud, angry, awesome girls making music of all types? Seek it out for fricks sake. The corporate ogre isn't gonna spoon feed them to you and your nostalgia is holding our culture back.
Nah Kat was an innovator. Truly on of a kind. Besides i couldn’t careless about empowered woman bs, I like Kat because she rocked hard. Babes were cool as shit
I met Lori Barbero several years ago. She was bartending in an Austin, Tx incredible dive (The White Horse). There were several of us, no one knew who she was and she was very nice. We didn't know and she didn't tell us. Cool.
Weren't Kat and Courtney Love in several early bands together? I remember the late 80's and early 90's alternative which was cool, I thought Nirvana was good though. It was the B and C crew like Candlebox and Bush that really killed the alternative stuff.
Tim Kilgore The band went under a few names Sugar Babylon, Sugar Baby Doll etc. But is on RUclips full EP as Pagan Babies. Listen to it through cable ear/headphones otherwise it will sound unintelligible
@@dukehalliday3622 No, she wasn't. Courtney did some rehersal with BYT (she wasn't able to play, at the time) at their first, but then flew to LA to organise concerts, as per Kat interview.
I saw this band in 1996 in a parking lot south of Mission in San Francisco and it was one of t he best shows I've seen even though I froze my ass off. It's too bad today's music is so weak. The 90's was a strong decade for music. Enjoy.
True pioneers! Babes, L7 and Lunachicks were pre-Riot Grrrl and considered themselves equal with dudes, not apart. I love Bikini Kill, Bratmobile and Heavens to Betsy, but these other 3 bands created a path for them to follow
I'd consider it their weakest LP, but I still like it. It's still got good songs on it though like Sweet '69, Surd, Oh Yeah!, and Hello. I also really like their cover of All By Myself...I do agree that there was something different about the production. Or maybe it has to do with as Kat said in the video, the vocal harmonies. They're pretty layer-y.
Now this was filmed while I was working with JJ and Ida No at Fred Meyers and we were super into Babes in Toyland. The Shattered Theater often copied clothes - and some girls stole the clothes - from babes in toyland and - on occasion yr Boy Courtney - so nicknamed from 1991 on - was often worried about - because I didn't want them to leave Portland cuz they were the best warmest girls with the best band I think E V E R
Yeah it is true isn’t doing well :/ she’s with someone right now that’s not good for her and she’s on many substances and not looking so good either. Real sad
@bjornzek damn ,I was hoping it wasn't true.We already lost so many of ,imo,the best artists out there,like Kurt,Chris,Layne,Chester,Scott,n so many more.Praying she gets better🙏
@astronot29 Why did you post your statement here? or did you post your statement on every video uploaded from the U.S.A.? You do know that there is no one alive today that had anything to do with that.
Kat, you will never read this but, you were cuter and more of a badass than Courtney. you actually made me cry with a song, she never could.It was "Gone".
I get what they were trying to do. I just wish Nemesisters had been a better record, especially considering that they never followed it up. So much of the raw fury and loose garage band vibe that made them great was missing.
ohhhh , So courtney love wants to be these girls but never could do it .So she lives off Nirvana money . But Babes n Toyland is real deal bad ass . Love it . New in 2020.
Yeah, Courtney pays medical bills for one band member (Kat) and employed another (Lori) as her personal assistant for years. She lived in the Four Seasons and the Château Marmont, drove a Porsche Courtney bought her. Courtney had her sent catered dinner every single night, even Saturdays and Sundays. She met movie stars and rock stars, flew even more places around the world than when her band was big and touring, and was gifted jewellery by Courtney after an event who said, “here, of course you won’t wear it. I don’t. But you can probably sell this for like $60,000 if you ever need to.” Considering how they did and occasionally do still talk about her, I think Courtney has proven to be a good ally and advocate to these girls. Which is more than deserving, because she lived (however briefly) rent free with Lori, sharing a bedroom, and learned quite a lot from Kat too.
Yeah, the drummer heard Alice Cooper's "Halo Of Flies" from the Killer album & got all inspired. What a great song. Heard a pretty decent cover by The Melvins last year...I was just playing Cub, L7, Catholic Girls the other day and BIT was the highlight. Hard to believe Karen Carpenter was a decent drummer, and April Lawton of Ramatam was playing solid rock gtr in 1972. Only girl bands were GTO's, Fancy, Fanny & The Runaways back then it seemed...oh and members of Finn Riggins and Beggar's Opera
funny but bevis and butthead introduced me to this band. I know the name of the episode had "babes" in it. "babes R us" maybe? A shame when you buy the show it doesn't have the music videos in it. You can find some good bands that way.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
it's a shame they didn't get really big during their time. They totally deserved it.
They got big enough for us to be talking about them right? Loved them at the time
They were huge . In my mind anyway and when I saw them live it blew my mind
Alternative, and especially grunge, were falling by the wayside around 1995. Rap and electronic were replacing actual singers and musicians
They were over seas , like UK they were huge!!! Just never got that in America, they said it in a doco, over seas they were playing arenas and getting limos then they get back to the states and it's small clubs. Maybe it's Japan or somewhere.

@@christhayil8354 are u saying that rappers aren’t real musicians?
Kat's voice is so sweet when she's speaking.
I know! It's surprising.
@@lolah3838 not too surprising because she has that singing voice that can be really sweet.
Wow, just wow. When Kat talks, she sounds so sweet and innocent and yet when she sings, she releses so much power that you just can't believe the sweet person you were talking to...can relese that much.
Babes in Toyland are kickass.
It’s 2024 I’m now 45 years old & still play Nemesisters CD in my car 🥰
I’ve had it since I was like 16 … loved it then love it now & always will 🤘🏼👩🏻
All 3 are fire signs, no wonder they have such fierce, passionate music.
How I started playing bass? My brother got his hand stuck in a pasta machine and couldn't play, so he gave it to me...
5:12
Gail-Ann Dorsey started playing exactly the same way. What are the odds?
maureen is so funny even if she didn't ever try to be

Babes In Toyland were by far the best of the early 90s girl grunge bands and it's great to see some footage of these cool chicks. Rock-on Kat!!!
ugh I love them so much
And they're all fire signs.
To this day, still one of my favorite bands ever
these girls are fun, relaxed, talented and totally intense live!
“...you just can’t help but love one another...right now” my two favorite bands!!
MTV editing... makes my brain hurt.
All Riot Grrrls that are left in this world lets make a goddamn band rrright now!
I only got into this band about 3 weeks ago after years of reading about them, i regret taking so long to listen to them, fucking inspirational!
I like every song iv'e heard of there's, its crazy lol.
comments like these are so cool cuz now you've been a fan for almost 15 years!!
Kat is one of the prettiest girls I've ever seen!
+Napalm Death people age
Napalm Death what's not natural about it?
Napalm Death true.
+Napalm Death actually u have no idea what health issues that she's dealing with now, she looks beautiful in real life still I've met her recently
+Napalm Death she looks fine. stop exaggerating.
Great video! Kat has such a magnetic aura about her. I love her voice!
“Lots of sugar, and all of this right here, makes me feel like i’m going to have a lot of...Diarrhea” LOOOL
The crush that I had on Kat Bjelland twenty years ago was borderline unhealthy.
I've recently discovered babes in toyland and im obsessed 😍
I absolutely love the drums in this band.
So amazingly talented and professional. Loved them in the 90s and love them still.

@@glennmarz652 damn. i will pray for her
The song in the beginning is called ''Drivin'" ,from the album Nemesisters
“More hips?!” Lmao
True pioneers! Babes, L7 and Lunachicks were pre-Riot Grrrl and considered themselves equal with dudes, not apart.
I love Bikini Kill, Bratmobile and Heavens to Betsy, but these other 3 bands created a path for them to follow
Fucking amazing band. One of a kind.
I always loved Kat's look during 95'. The short hair look is pretty cool. Lori looks epic with her long hair, and Maureen is very pretty.
Kat was always sexy from day 1. The drummer is looking good in this one

...REESE WITHERSPOON TWIN!!?? 😍🤩🥰
Kat’s voice still to this day just lights a fire in my belly … I love that woman ❤🔥
Does anyone know what the name of the song at 1:44?
01:40 is Swamp Pussy from the first album, Spankin Machine
the following song is S.F.W from the third album, Nemesisters
EXELENT!! thank you so much
I don’t wear makeup like ever
*is wearing red lipstick*
Thanks for the new bands to check out. I've only heard of Queen Adreena and Sleigh Bells!
Courtney was obviously a Kat wannabe when she first started Hole.Just because Kat isn't as famous as Courtney no one noticed
No she wasnt. U only get that impression because they shared clothes. Stop saying that stuff. Its weird and embarrassing
@@ilovecats440you can look up what the song bruise violet is about.
@@ModPhreak kat said it wasnt about courtney
Thanks for posting this ARockJ! I miss the Babes!
two sags and a leo.... FIREEE!!!
luv these girls :)
favorite album
one of the best albums ever!!!!!!!even better than pearl jam,s ten!
First discovered this band in high school and love them. Bad A$$ Chicks! A+++
Babes In Toyland's Fans from 90's to 2019?...
2020!
She really is a babe.
... does this video make anyone else miss Cake Magazine? Oh, those good ol' days in the 612 XD
God, they must of been a great live band!
kat is from oregon
Babes in Toyland are so special, there is no band like this one. (If there is tell me)
Greatest Female Metal Band Ever ❤❤
Now this was filmed while I was working with JJ and Ida No at Fred Meyers and we were super into Babes in Toyland. The Shattered Theater often copied clothes - and some girls stole the clothes - from babes in toyland and - on occasion yr Boy Courtney - so nicknamed from 1991 on - was often worried about - because I didn't want them to leave Portland cuz they were the best warmest girls with the best band I think E V E R
I have loved Babes in Toyland since probably 1994.Does anyone know how Kat is doing? I heard she wasn't doing so good Hope that's not true.
Yeah it is true isn’t doing well :/ she’s with someone right now that’s not good for her and she’s on many substances and not looking so good either. Real sad
@bjornzek damn ,I was hoping it wasn't true.We already lost so many of ,imo,the best artists out there,like Kurt,Chris,Layne,Chester,Scott,n so many more.Praying she gets better🙏
Where's the rest of the documentary?
Does anyone know what song it is at 0:41?
it’s Hello
What the name of this song 0:09?
Hagrid222 the song is Drivin'
4:38 - 4:44 where i can watch that performance? i know is "he's my thing" but i can't find then
ruclips.net/video/dQH9KehuKiA/видео.html&ab_channel=TVnedtur
Supremely bad-ass band.
One of the best grunge bands .

the bass player makes me feel.. so so gay there's just something about her that's appealing
Thanks for sharing arockj
Great rocking girls...very genuine
Kat is my spirit animal
BABES !! Love you guys!
What is a pasta machine, and how does one get one's hand stuck in it?
they're from my state! I absolutely love them
What song is played in the background while they’re introducing each other??
More more more is the song
Where were you I thought that I knew what can I do but think about you
The song is called "Drivin"
"Sweet '69"
is this the full doco? 7 mins?
I get what they were trying to do. I just wish Nemesisters had been a better record, especially considering that they never followed it up. So much of the raw fury and loose garage band vibe that made them great was missing.
Agree! Overall a bad record. 'Hello' is a great song though
i think that riot grrrls is just grunge, and that grunge is just some heavy or hard punk / alternative.
@kurtywurty85
The song is "Hello"
@BlueRainSoda12 I always felt like there was some kinf od connection b/t BITand L7! Thanks for that info
Great video!
That's true. I haven't listened to them. WHY!? I need to
this is fantastic
love them
Holy crap, haven't seen these "girls" since high school. I'm 50 now and they're still cute LOL
Good thing you wrote "in my opinion."
they are so cool im speechless/stunned,,,,,,
Girls were so much cooler in the 90s.
Eh
That's fine. Glad you like the babes.
They said that they're a family and love each other. Too bad a lawsuit threat made to Kat by the other two fucked it all up.
totally awesome..
i love babes in toyland!!!
Kats whole image obviously has a huge influence on Katie Perry!
what's the name of the song in the beginning?
what is the song from 0:25 - 0:38 ?
ohhhh , So courtney love wants to be these girls but never could do it .So she lives off Nirvana money . But Babes n Toyland is real deal bad ass . Love it . New in 2020.
