  • Le Pandoras furono una band tutta al femminile di Los Angeles in California attiva dal 1983 al 1990, nata come parte della scena garage rock di Hollywood. Più tardi la band virò suono ed immagine verso un hard rock più contemporaneo. Le Pandoras furono poi parte della scena Paisley Underground che proponeva un'estetica fortemente influenzata dal garage rock e dalla psichedelia della West Coast anni '60. La cantante ed autrice della band Paula Pierce, morì il 10 agosto 1991 per un aneurisma all'età di 31 anni (it)
  • The Pandoras — американская женская рок-группа, сформированная в 1982 году, в Лос-Анджелесе. Начав с гаражного рока, группа сменила своё звучание впоследствии на хард-рок. Лидер группы Paula Pierce скончалась 10 августа 1991 года от аневризмы. Группа дебютировала в 1984 году с мини-альбомом I'm Here I'm Gone на лейбле Moxie Records. В том же году был записан альбом It's About Time (1984) с продюсером Greg Shaw, однако группа распалась к концу года. Вокалист/гитарист Paula Pierce приглашает трёх новых участниц, в то время как прежний состав гастролировал в течение непродолжительного времени под тем же названием The Pandoras. Paula Pierce и её новый состав издают следующий альбом Stop Pretending (1986) на лейбле Rhino, а затем подписывают контракт с мейджор-лейблом Elektra. Был записан альбом Come Inside (1987), который никогда не издавался, в итоге The Pandoras были исключены из лейбла. На мини-альбоме Rock Hard (1988) группа далеко отошла от своих гаражных истоков, так же, как и на альбоме Live Nymphomania (1989), записанном на концерте в Далласе. В 2014 году бывшие участницы группы объединились под названием The 21st Century Pandoras. Под новым названием были изданы два цифровых сингла «Joyride» и «Flashback Forever». (ru)
