5.0 out of 5 stars Addictive grrrl rock, March 11, 2001
This review is from: Tiger Beat (Audio CD)
Always on the lookout for new CD's with real grrrl power (and not the spice girls kind either!)I reccently bought this CD and have not stoped listening to it since.

Really, the best way to describe it is the marrriage of Bikini Kill and the Go-go's not because they are unoriginal, but because of the popy sing-song hooks, and electric guitar riffs wailing over lyrics that are decidedly grrrl centered. Influenced by my particular school, I have reccently begun listening to a lot of music celebrating women in rock and punk bands.

Because the stereotype of the female groupie is so well worn, I thought it was interesting of the band to write and sing about the adventures of a male groupie.

Yes, I bought the album just out of curiousity, but I found out that it was impossible to just listen to it---dancing is an absolute must with this CD.

4.0 out of 5 stars very impressive debut album, November 16, 2000
By 
This review is from: Tiger Beat (Audio CD)
olympia's bangs impress on their debut album, tiger beat. a melting pot of ac/dc, bangles, and maybe black sabbath if they weren't so dark and angry sounding. this album is intoxicatingly catchy, while rocking at the same time. with guitar solos that seem to go to outer space but come back at the right time. the nice thing about this album is that it is the perfect length. it ends leaving you wanting more, but knowing that if there were more songs at the end of the album you would be tired from rocking out to long. their new album sweet revenge is pretty good too.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sounds like...everything else..., November 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Tiger Beat (Audio CD)
We wanna be just like yew. To lame to create their own sound The Bangs are content with medocrity and the status quo. Don't waste your time, there are plenty of other Oly bands who are much more worthy than this second rate schlock. The only thing good about this band is their drummer Jesse Fox.
