THE
GIRL CAN'T HELP IT - Hot Damn (Steel
Cage)
Jesus, these girl’s are pussy supreme, couldn't they do a cover with
more photos? (Roll over the cover to see what I mean). At first glance it
just looks like three strippers formed a band (and not burned-out over 40
strippers, either).
I dunno, ever since the Runnaways did a video and album cover in lingere back
in the '70s, girl bands have always been close to my heart. This CD is trashy
punk rock 'n' roll, fast and medium-paced; the band lock into the medium-paced
trash pretty good, and spill beer all over the place on the fast tracks.
It's the third
album for these mid-westerners and the 13 tracks clock in at just under 27
minutes. My favourites are songs like "I’m Hooked" and "He
Likes Em Dead". The lyrics are humourous, the attitude erect, the nipples
hard and the juice is flowing.
This CD just makes me wanna see 'em live. I think that's where they would
be best experienced for a maxiumum good time. Oh, you could track down "Leg
Show" too, where they do a spread. - Ashley
