This little known
German band is offering some kind of straight forward, but well done, metal
sounding a bit like Led Zeppelin with a big difference. The singer is a bitch
by the name of Nina C. Alice. I don't mean to be insulting but a girl singing
lyrics such as: "Don't need no romance to get in my pants"; "My way, your
way, screw it in, screw it out, kiss my lips, the one I don't eat with..."
see what I mean. Not that I'm offended by it since I'm a big fan of Frank
Zappa with over fifty cds from him, so I've heard it all. Anyway, the music
is up tempo and strong and the singer has a rough type of voice from too much
party and sex... The overall sounds good and somewhat similar to the above
mentioned superband or even AC/DC. Catchy songs like "Life's A Bitch",
"Shoot Out Your Lights", "Head Up Your Ass" have rather simplistic musical
phrases but remain effective even if not sophisticated. The most interesting
part is on songs number seven and eight. The first one sounds like "Black
Dog" from Led Zep with its pounding drums, echos on the vocals and drums. The
second one is more melodic and the "girl's" voice is more harmonious than
on the other songs. We can also hear acoustic guitar on this one. I started
losing interest around the last four or five songs but "Voodoo Doll" ends it
all with a good tune.
