VICIOUS IRENE - Takin the night back CD

Vicious Irene are an all girl trio from Gothenburg, Sweden, playing tight rockin' punk that makes me varm and fuzzy for badass females playing music everywhere. Their style is raw, to the point, pissed off. All components of the band are talanted as hell, the vocal melodies are right on, the lyrics are simple and straight forward ideas of feminism (including a song about being in an all girl band, with a big hearty fuck you! to critics). And I love "Agoraphobia", "I've got a people allergy". Hell yeah. (Hatchet)
