The Gore Gore Girls – Get the Gore

583540783.jpgThe third album of these crazy chicks is an unbalanced one but a good one.

For those who don’t read the precious posts on this blog, you don’t know that I was obsessed with their first album. It sounded like a wild cat fight recorded with a 1930 tape recorder but, hey, isn’t that the exact definition of a GOOD punk record?

 

So I bought the second one but I wasn’t convinced: too slow, not enough screaming and even the songs weren’t catchy or wild enough or…

Anyway, this one shows the girls back in full form: songs like “Pleasure unit” (my favorite), “Loaded heart”, “Don’t cry” or “Fox in a Box” will get you wild alright while the great covers of “All Grown Up” or “Where evil grows” (second favorite – and if anybody knows who sung the original and where to find it, I’d appreciate the infos a LOT) are impressive and sung with the perfect attitude. Because if there is one thing those wild gals have plenty of, it’s attitude alright. And it’s so perfect that it balances anything you’d think this album lacks of!!!
