“Within a minute, they seem to have trashed every female stereotype in rock and roll… I was amazed” – Greil Marcus, ‘Rolling Stone’ 1980.

The Raincoats, seminal post-punk band, ‘godmothers of grunge’ and inspiration to a generation of riot grrrls, are celebrating over three decades of breaking rules and doing things the way they think they should be done with a film that maps the band from its… Read more in Amazon's The Raincoats Store

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't start with this..., December 11, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Raincoats (Audio CD)
I picked this up on CD after I listened to the band's earlier releases, "The Raincoats","Odyshape","Moving" and "The Kitchen Tapes"; it didn't impress me. Note the absence of Vicky Aspinell, who I feel was an essential part of the Raincoats in their early years. The gal's voices don't sound as great as they did on their previous albums. Gina's voice grated on my nerves after the first track. The last two tracks are from back in the day. Raincoats' classics! I would say, pick this one up after you have listened to their earlier releases. Maybe then you'll share a similar opinion!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Raincoats rock!, October 17, 2000
This review is from: The Raincoats (Audio CD)
Aggressive, rebellious, moody, beautiful, sexy! Jagged guitar mixed with haunting violins, soft beautiful female vocals mixed with harsh scratchy talking, sometimes crazy, sometimes eccentric, always hypnotising.. The Raincoats influenced a new style of rock, one of those groups that from the first time you hear them you are hooked. This album is no exception. The songs are so difficult to describe! Just when you think you have it figured, the whole rhythm and mood change. "Shouting Out Loud" starts out with pretty harmonic vocals with an almost tribal percussion, but then swings into trumpets and violins with an almost symphonic feel. I like "No One's Little Girl", it is very catchy and groovy. Funky! Great drums, and the bass is very prominent.. makes you want to chair-dance! Hmmm, if you're into indie, you'll love it..
