Album Review

Reviewed 2003-05-04
Punk rock/pop from Norwegian band. Female vocals, guitar, bass, drums. Generally med-fast or fast with tight, choppy, short guitar bursts. Songs are compact and tightly woven. Definitely fun, jumpy, and upbeat. All tracks good, but recommend 2,9,11,14 for variety.
1 – med-fast, tight and fast guitar, steady beat
2 – fast, simple, and catchy
3 – super fast and frenetic
4 – more pop, catchy chorus, interesting off-beat drum pattern
5 – same as others, with guitar solo
6 – med, jingoish chorus, strummy guitar, percussion, swingey guitar solo
7 – super fast
8 – fast
9 – catchy, slight bluesy feel
10 – fast, clappy drum beat in verses
11 – longest track (3+ min), 2 guitars work well together here
12 – jumpy, with pounding drum/percussion beat
13 – med-fast, more pop feel
14 – short (less than 2 min) unlisted track, clippy crunchy guitars with very high-pitched distributed background sound and high voice
