Spin's 100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time
39Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney, Wild Flag)
Carrie Brownstein has spent the last 12 years of her life playing in bands with no bassist, using the bonus space to weave searing lead lines and wily counterpoints around her bandmates. She started out in Sleater-Kinney as a punky player with clever riffs and ended a bona fide shredder, peeling off psychedelic solos worthy of her Townshend-style windmills. In Wild Flag, she’s found a fascinating foil in Mary Timony’s off-kilter style. Insert high kick here.
Most Heroic Moment: S-K’s 2005 album The Woods was all Brownstein bluster and beautiful squall. C.G.
