No doubt there’s some sweet pop rock here, a teen girl-power anthem or two, and an nice lil cover of Metallica’s “Nothing Else Matters,” but it’s no I Bificus.
The best elements of tough girl rock (think Pat Benetar, Patty Smythe, DiVinyls) with the muscle of Joan Jett and L7, yet infusing it with personal touch.
The lyrics never waver from no-offense-but-here’s-the-storytelling. And the songs dare non-commercialism just as they sing tunefully, catchy, and blunt.
