Editorial Reviews

After a very well received debut single on Charles Records, Detroit all-girl rock & roll trio Gore Gore Girls finally deliver their long-awaited full-length debut album! These Detroit natives have managed to merge the best of their city’s R&R heritage: From Motown to Motor City Rock to the Gories primitive garage. The twelve songs included on this album (9 originals and 3 covers) feature vocal harmonies and ramblin’ guitars galore along side distorted lead vocal tracks and fiery guitar leads. Ronettes meet MC5! Recorded at Detroit’s popular Ghetto Studios (White Stripes, Dirt Bombs, Blacks...) the sound is raw yet loud and in your face.

I'm Gonna Get You Yet is about the only totaly stand out track on this record. Its an alright record - I'm just not hammered on it.

Just a little rant:
I've tried to understand why the retro low-fi sound is supposed to be hip but I really don't get it. Why in the world do you pedal backward in the world of technology is beyond me. I know garage is supposed to make artists accessible but when artists are able to take advantage of current sound technology but refuse it bothers me. If you take that philosophy to heart then they should only be releasing on 78rpm records from old vintage 40's recording equipment and playback on the ole Victrola.
Ok, maybe I do understand. It's like the difference between B&W and Color photography. Some of my most favorite art photos are B&W but I would still love to hear this in color!
In the meantime I still like the structure and passion of these artists.
