This would be classed, I guess,
as ‘girl-punk’, but it really is just a class rock album with a female
vocalist. It has the oft-used elements –
the power-chord shouty songs, the slow and odd number, the rumbling chunky
one. Nothing to change your world, but
done with such style, and more importantly conviction,
that it’s really hard not to love. Katastrophy Wife are what The Distillers would sound like if they
were any good. This is the first album
on this list that my Dad got me into.
There are others…
