Question: Sunny Day Real Estate and Bikini Kill were bands originating from what state?
Context: Return of the Frog Queen is a solo album recorded by Jeremy Enigk while on hiatus from his post as singer of Sunny Day Real Estate.  It was recorded with a 21-piece orchestra and released in 1996.  It has a slower and quieter sound than Sunny Day Real Estate's often-bombastic albums. Sunny Day Real Estate was an American emo band from Seattle, Washington.  They were one of the early emo bands and helped establish the genre.  In 1994, the band released their debut album "Diary" on Sub Pop Records to critical acclaim.  However, shortly after releasing their second album "LP2", the band broke up, with members Nate Mendel and William Goldsmith joining Foo Fighters and Jeremy Enigk embarking on a solo career.  In 1997, they regrouped long enough to record two more studio albums and a live album but ultimately disbanded once again in 2001.  The band reunited again in 2009.  Bassist Nate Mendel, who chose to remain with Foo Fighters during the previous reunion in 1997, took part in this reunion.  In a 2013 interview with MusicRadar, Mendel said Sunny Day Real Estate was inactive.  According to Mendel, the band attempted to record a full-length album after the end of their reunion tour, but the sessions "just fell apart".  In 2014 the band released one song from those sessions, "Lipton Witch," on a split 7" vinyl with Circa Survive on Record Store Day. Benton Falls was a rock band from Santa Rosa, California, which originally formed in 2000.  The trio formerly consisted of Michael Richardson, Vance Gore, and Eli Deering, with second guitarist Gerb leaving after the release of "Fighting Starlight".  The band's music was influenced by such bands as Sunny Day Real Estate, Braid, and Jawbox.  They first appeared on the compilation "The Silence In My Heart: The Emo Diaries Chapter Six" and released their first full-length album, "Fighting Starlight", less than a month later on Deep Elm Records.  In the winter of 2000 the band went back into the recording studio to work on their follow-up album "Guilt Beats Hate", which was released in the spring of 2003. Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah is the Bikini Kill side of a split album between American and English riot grrrl bands Bikini Kill and Huggy Bear.  It was released in 1993 on Kill Rock Stars.  The Huggy Bear side was entitled "Our Troubled Youth".  Bikini Kill reissued their side on their imprint Bikini Kill Records on April 15, 2014.  They did not have the rights to the Huggy Bear side, and instead paired it with unreleased live tracks. Emo is a genre of rock music characterized by an emphasis on emotional expression, sometimes through confessional lyrics.  It emerged as a style of post-hardcore from the mid-1980s hardcore punk movement of Washington, D.C., where it was known as emotional hardcore or emocore and pioneered by Washington, D.C. hardcore bands such as Rites of Spring and Embrace.  However, as the genre was taken up by a new generation of musicians in the early 1990s, its sound and meaning shifted and changed and it was reinvented as a style of indie rock and pop punk by bands such as Jawbreaker, Sunny Day Real Estate, Weezer, and Jimmy Eat World.  By the mid-1990s, numerous emo acts such as Braid, The Promise Ring, and the Get Up Kids emerged in the Midwestern and Central United States, and several independent record labels began to specialize in the genre.  Meanwhile, a more aggressive style of emo, screamo, had also emerged, pioneered by the San Diego bands Heroin and Antioch Arrow. Jeremy Enigk ( ; born July 16, 1974) is an American singer-songwriter, vocalist and guitarist / multi-instrumentalist.  He is known as a solo artist, a film score composer, and as the lead vocalist, rhythm guitarist and keyboardist (and bassist between 1999 and 2001) of the Seattle-based bands Sunny Day Real Estate and The Fire Theft. Sunny Day Real Estate is the second studio album by alternative rock band Sunny Day Real Estate.  The band's label, Sub Pop, distributed the album under the title LP2.  Due to its simple pink cover, the album is often referred to as "The Pink Album". The Fire Theft was an American rock band from Seattle, Washington.  They were formed in 2001 by vocalist/guitarist Jeremy Enigk, bassist Nate Mendel, and drummer William Goldsmith, all of whom were previously members of Sunny Day Real Estate.  Mendel also plays bass for Foo Fighters, and Goldsmith drummed for Foo Fighters between 1995 and 1997.  This lineup was identical to the original line up of Sunny Day Real Estate but with the exception of guitarist Dan Hoerner.  While the band went on a hiatus in 2004, there was never an announcement of an official breakup. Drowningman was a hardcore punk band from Burlington, Vermont, which was active from 1995 to 2005.  Formed in the fall of 1995 by Simon Brody, Denny Donovan, Javin Leonard, Dave Barnett and Todd Tomlinson, the band was heavily influenced by a variety of bands including Deadguy, Unbroken, Shotmaker, Unwound, Sunny Day Real Estate and Promise Ring.  This musical amalgamation helped to pioneer the modern metalcore and mathcore musical subgenres.  The band was known for revolving membership and frequent record label changes. Bikini Kill was an American punk rock band formed in Olympia, Washington, in October 1990.  The group consisted of singer and songwriter Kathleen Hanna, guitarist Billy Karren, bassist Kathi Wilcox, and drummer Tobi Vail.  The band is widely considered to be the pioneer of the riot grrrl movement, and was known for its radical feminist lyrics and fiery performances.  Their music is characteristically abrasive and hardcore-influenced.  After two full-length albums, several EPs and two compilations, they disbanded in 1997.
