The Plath is a three-piece queercore band from Toronto, Ontario. Already being compared to riot grrl bands like Bikini Kill & Excuse 17 crossed over with earlier punk groups like Black Flag & X Ray Spex. The Plath’s music is a heavy mixture of rock steady drumming, thick anchoring bass lines and edgy guitar riffs. Together with their political and emotional lyrics they create a sound that is angry and moving. Featuring Cheryl on drums/vocals, Shannon on bass/vocals & Aron on guitar.

Cheryl and Shannon met back in 1998 and began playing music together soon after. After trying out several guitar players they have settled down with a there perfect match, Aron.
