Safe House
* PREORDER * LUNACHICKS - Binge & Purge LP
* PREORDER * expected to arrive late Feb / early March
Highly recommended.
Throw away your Amyl and the Sniffers records and replace them with the O.G. Riot Grrl punks Lunachicks!
Yes they are lyrically vile and have a disgusting sense of humour and pretty much qualify as white trash. Still as musicians, they are pretty frickin' talented which is abundantly clear here.
Chip takes her place as one of the best drummers to sit on a stool, her off beats and high energy performance keep this punching along at a great pace. The guitar work is actually rather difficult, fast paced and well placed along side the three chord punk standard, they definitely have a unique sound.
Theo is a very charismatic singer, she has a great gymnastic voice and her gagging and barfing noises really spice up the music and make it exciting.
"Binge And Purge" will most likely offend Bulimics everywhere, but I still can't help but laugh at it and feel guilty. "Apathetic" and "This Is Serious" are totally hyperactive and a really good time as well.
Their best album by far so if you are curious, start here on this newly reissued platter.
