Well, I'm an (early) Slits fan, also a fan of Kleenex/Liliput, of 
course, who i see as sorta similar.
Apparently to some folks the contemporary band MIKA MIKO is "the modern 
day Slits" (though a "modern day Slits" makes no sense in our radically 
different pop culture/music subculture/cultural context). Still, they 
manage to sound like them:
http://www.myspace.com/mikamiko     <-- Mika Miko mp3s there (use Audio 
Hijack or Audacity program to download MySpace mp3s greyed out for 
download, best discovery I've made in awhile)
Mika Miko graduated to the label that gave Bikini Kill a lot of early 
exposure, the Kill Rock Stars label. I said Mika Miko's CYSLABF LP was 
one of the Top 20 LPs of 2006. Along with Hosannas of course. :)
