A-

By Charles Aaron

On this five-song EP (plus 32 minutes of live screech), this all-female Minneapolis thrash-metal trio rails poetically against the notion that aggressive women have a ''sickness'' in need of a male cure. The Babes singer-guitarist Kat Bjelland scat-jabbers her point when necessary (''Angel Hair'') and busts out laughing when she feels like it.
