Rating: Even though it might seem impossible, the teenager Jo Squillo debuted in 1980, leading a group of young punk girls (the Kandeggina Gang) with a 45 rpm: "Sono cattiva - Orrore."
It is a bare and immature, but captivating Punk, driven by a voice that screams youthful discomforts and opposes parental bigotry (Sono cattiva) and the desires of young boyfriends (Orrore). Therefore, this experience is one of the first testimonies and expressions of the Italian punk generation, of sure importance to the movement.
After the "Kandeggina Gang" experience ended, Jo Squillo released her first real album "Girl senza paura" under the name "Jo Squillo Eletrix." In this work, punk feels the influence of New Wave and the synth appears, but the spirit remains the same: description, critique, and provocation of contemporary society.
After the following single "Avventurieri", however, she will be swallowed by that very society she so hated, contradicting herself dramatically.
