THE PINK SEXIES (POB 686, Knoxville, TN 37901) What a great cd.
Imagine Angry Samoans, The New York Dolls, and the Jim Carroll Band
blended together and playing ultra raw punk. The music heard here is so
damn raw it will cause you to chafe and rash. You’ll need a big arse jar
of Goldbond Medicated Powder. You know, the radio commercials you hear all
day long about people itching and treating their rashes. I mean how gross
is that? Who cares about other people’s itching and rashing? And the
people who speak during the commercial sound as if they’re pleased as
punch that they actually have uncontrollable itching and rashing to treat.
Hey, maybe that’s where the Pink comes from in the band’s name..from
rashing. Forget the Sexies part, there’s nothing sexy here, unless you
use the term sexy as an adjective to describe good.. These dudes play the
type of music you used to hear bands play upstairs at The Rat
(Boston-Kenmore Sq.- gone). I
love every single minute of the 17+ minutes that makes up this seven song
disc. Even better, the cd sounds live, but it’s not. Catchy, raw, and
very low budget sounding..doesn’t get any better. – Denis Sheehan |
