Glasweigan girlies with guitars. The elements are all in place for something a bit special and the girls do not disappoint.

Following on from their kick-ass debut single 'Rock'N'Roll Freak / Hip To You' was always going to be a challenge but one met in the only way the girls know and that is head on! 'Ijustwannastickmyheadinthebassdrum' is all down-tuned sludgy guitar riffs, thumping drum beats and in Ros Cairney they have someone who can not just hold a tune but belt it to you with such bitter sweet ferocity that it's simply spellbinding. OK, the lyrics may be slightly dodgy ('I wanna kiss ya till you come / I just wanna stick my head in the bass drum') but that doesn't matter. This isn't a call for world peace, this is a call to arms for those ready, willing and able to rock!

The days of Shriek! are a long way behind the girls now but so what? This is the first band in ages who not only have a great band name, they can back it up to the hilt.

I want to hate them so much for their name.

But I suspect that I'd quite like them.

To ensure that this doesn't happen I'm going to avoid ever hearing them.

Something about my nose and my face has sprung to mind. Hmmm

We are putting them on in lancaster next friday 20th May, see www.feedback.dontexist.org by the way 'girlies with guitars' is so &^%*&$%* condescending.
