One comment; they're very active supporting pro-choice and were
involved with the "Rock for Choice" benefit.
With lyrics like "down at the creek smoking pot" and "...some chick
just grabbed my..." and some others that I won't mention here how
could you go wrong?
They have a some what similar sound to Babes in Toyland and Hole.
They're also on a compilation 7" entitled "...and everything"
featuring Babes...STP, and Hole.
They're either about to sign with DGC or are expected to have a
follow-up to "Smell the Magic" on another label that I don't recall
other than Sup Pop. Unless I've missed one in between.
They're supposed to be in Boston / Providence some time soon and I'm
really looking forward to seeing them. Silly me for missing their
Ground Zero '89 show but I won't miss them this time.
fast but hardly frightening,

Not as rocking as Babes in Toyland, not as grungy as dickless, but not bad none
the less. I've got a couple of their songs; `Shove' on `the Grunge Years', and
another one which eludes me on `Teriyaki Asthma Vol. 3'. They've got at least
one album out `Smell the Magic', and another one on the way. Playing in
England V. Soon.

| Lee, regarding those tour dates you just reminded me how much I miss
the defuncted "Rock Around the World"...
Some from memory so...
- speaking of compilations...also on one of the Radio Tokyo
Tapes, "Women" doing their version of Ozzy's "Sweet Leaf".
I know they're on the recent Teriyaki Asthma LP, but I forget
which volume of the 7". Babes have a track too. Some good
stuff on this one.
They may also be on Sup Pop Rock City an import on Glitter../
Germany if I recall.
etc.

Defunct? Damn. No wonder I can't find it anymore.
I really loved this rag.

Their Slash release "Bricks Are Heavy" is in stores (states) now.
I have yet to see the 4 track EP that I had heard was released.
Anyone know? Does it have all the same tracks as album?
One track "Wargasm" has a sample of Yoko Ono. As well as the note
on the sampling they also thank her.
Another Butch Vig production.
