Babepunch – Control

| Babepunch - Control |
Release Date: Out Now
It’s the hope and expectation
that lets you down so often in this music reviewing game so it’s a huge and
satisfying relief when the hope and expectation I placed on a band named
Babepunch (strong stuff) was rewarded tenfold. The Nottingham five piece have
birthed ‘Control’ and it’s bawling, screaming bratty slice of sub-two-minute
punk with fuzzy edges and oh so much power. Calling this Riot Girl would be
underplaying the punch that these babes pack (sorry) when, actually, they could
go toe to toe with Queens of the Stoneage for sheer
standing-in-front-of-a-jet-engine power. This is a real statement of intent in
the vein of, obviously, Hole, L7, Veruca Salt and Deux Furieuses but also My
Bloody Valentine and the aforementioned Queens. If this is what they can do
with less time than it takes to make a Pot Noodle then I’m signing up now for
the first live show within spitting distance. Exhilarating.
