This review is from: Fair Is Foul & Foul Is Fair (Audio CD)

The extremely overlooked minneapolis power trio, babes in toyland is displayed in one of their strongest elements on fair is foul. that element being their live performance. the raw and sometimes unreal howl of kat bjellands vocals and the simple yet so complex guitar riffs, pounding bass, and tribal drums create an unforgettable sound that demands attention. disc one of this release features early singles and unreleased material such as the twisted "dirty" and the unforgettable circus sideshow "big top". it is a must have.
