Hello Shonen Knife freaks fans! Cannibal Papaya here. I'm from Brazil, where SK seem to have only few fans, actually few people that even know them 
Like many fans I got to know them by Kurt Cobain's top 50 album list, but I soon realized how amazing they were on their own and wondered how I never heard about this band. The first song I heard from them was Redd Kross I guess, and then the next was probably A Day Of The Factory. I started then to slowly download their albums right from the beginning (Minna Tanoshikku demo tape) to absorb them properly when I realized I stumbled upon an amazing band.
I'd like to thank shoknifeman who showed me this forum, it's really hard to find fans of them to actually discuss about the band.
Apart from Shonen Knife, I love 77's punk and proto punk, like the Ramones, The Boys, Buzzcocks, Dead Boys, Johnny Thunders, The Stooges... and some other stuff like My Bloody Valentine (couldn't believe when I read that Shonen Knife were going to make a cover of them), Forgotten Boys (a brazilian band), Ladytron, The Pandoras, Supergrass, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Muffs, The Archies... lots of stuff, good rock'n'roll music in general, in many forms.
TL;DR: Nice to meet you all!
