The SoapGirls – Bad Bitch
 |
Release Date: Out Now
South African duo The SoapGirls are
now based in the UK and touring this small island with nothing but a couple of
guitars and some songs. And I when I say nothing I mean nothing almost
literally as these ladies seem to find wearing clothes inhibits their musical performance
but not in a Eurotrash kinda way, I can assure you. New single ‘Bad Bitch’ was
apparently written after an episode of sexually motivated abuse and that
emotionally charged experience gave them the motivation they needed to write
this tune. Musically, this is punk-rock with LA spirit like Buckcherry in
high-heels but with the alt-pop sneer of Shampoo or Joan Jett which makes it
all the more appealing. Sure, this isn’t the most original stuff out there at
the moment but it’s hard to resist some good, honest, dirty rock’n’roll with
some quality vocal harmonies and a heavy dose of genuine anger slathered over
the top. I’m going to stick my neck out and suggest this pair tear it up on the
live stage as well so get out there and catch them at a show if you can.
