GASH turn in four songs here, showcasing a mid- to fast-tempo hardcore format with excellent lyrics and strong female wailing. A real progression from their debut LP, sacrificing nothing in the way of power or drive.
This all-female band from Australia forces out a tough, grungy guitar sound and some nasty vocals — and I admired the lyrics concerns, too. It’s too bad that the melodies follow the same minor-third guitar professions song after song. Extreme repetition, which is too bad, because I was hopeful about this band.
GIRLS AGAINST SEXIST HYPE aren’t fuckin’ around at all! Great smashing hardcore, sharp lyrics, powerful production—too much. Imagine a POISON GIRLS approach with thrash power, and you got it. Get it.
