Comment:
There's a glimmer o fsophistication here, and they are tightly regimented,but overall they lack substance, relevance and originality. This is shits n' giggles, mostly.

Strengths/Weaknesses/Next Step: The sticker on one of their guitars screamed, "I have the biggest dick in the band." In solidarity with my fellow females in this industry, I must acknowledge their ability to rock out with their cocks out with as much raucous energy as their male counterparts. But their music is just as stale and uninspired too. And was that stage banter about her water bottle I just heard? Oh snap! Oh no she didn't!

Strengths/Weaknesses/Next Step:
Plagued by feedback, the midnight crowd nonetheless loved them. But of course, they've got 3-chord melodies with raspy sex-voices and plenty of body-shakin' moves. And let's not forget these girls are ethereally beautiful. But could there be anything less relevant today than a throwback to Heart/Roxette/Veruca Salt/Sass Jordan? I guess they're good if you're feeling nostalgic.
