Peaches Show Collects Misfits

in
By Evan Dickson (CHARTattack) May 21, 2009 4:10 pm
It was the first bona fide hot day of the season for Toronto — a powerful omen for our ex-pat bisexual cock rocker to bring home the sweat show. What a crowd Peaches draws in this town: Ravers smoking at the gate, grannies and grampies at the door (her parents, maybe?), lesbians and indie rock dudes rubbing plaid shoulders under the disco ball....

Peaches — I Feel Cream

in
By Phil Villeneuve (CHARTattack) May 6, 2009 2:22 pm
Peaches proclaims she's "gonna cut this party down to size/gonna make this party come alive/gonna go and crush it with my thighs" on the grinding synth-stomper "More." This is a pretty accurate description of what I Feel Cream can do. I Feel Cream drops Impeach My Bush's rock and turns the filthy Euro-electro back up with production from the...

Eagles Of Death Metal Get Peaches' Party Started

By Noah Love (CHARTattack) July 19, 2006 4:00 pm
It's rarely a bad thing when a show you're going to see is downgraded to a smaller venue. Who doesn't want to see their favourite artist in more intimate confines? One of the significant exceptions in Toronto is when a show gets moved from the Kool Haus to the Guvernment. People may complain about the Kool Haus, but it has decent sound and great...

Peaches — Impeach My Bush

in
By David McDougall (CHARTattack) July 11, 2006 3:34 pm
Yes, Impeach My Bush is a rather awesome Dubya double entendre, and Peaches even kicks things off with the introductory mantra, "I'd rather fuck who I want/Than kill who I am told to." But don't worry, Canada's electroclash smut queen mostly sticks to the sexual politics on her third outing. The fuzzy one plays sex-ed teacher on "...

Will The Real Bauhaus Please Stand Up?

By Noah Love (CHARTattack) June 26, 2006 3:00 pm
Since I don't frequent black or goth metal shows on a regular basis, I'll likely never see more black T-shirts than on Saturday night at the Molson Amphitheatre, where legions congregated for the Nine Inch Nails/Bauhaus/Peaches tripleheader. With perfect weather and clear air, this was one of those nights that was made for an outdoor show. And...

You kids have it so good these days, what with owning your own glockenspiels and having thousands of Facebook friends you can call on to gang-sing in your viral video campaigns and such.There was a time, though, when being a Canadian rock 'n' roller wasn't so easy.

Billy Corgan says he's writing a "spiritual memoir" about his time with the Smashing Pumpkins. He's sounding more and more like the bald version of Jeff Martin these days... Bjork's launched a trippy new...

Video Of The Day: R.E.M.'s "Alligator Aviator Autopilot Antimatter" (Featuring Peaches)

By CHARTattack Staff (CHARTattack) March 14, 2011 5:05 pm
R.E.M.'s next awesome video for a tune from their recently released Collapse Into Now album features wicked cameos from Peaches, who wanders around Berlin's subway system in weird costumes with Michael Stipe. There's no real alligator in this clip, but there's a lot of... well... strangeness, like Stipe in a gladiator uniform, for instance...

Christina Aguilera's been ripping off Peaches' look a lot recently, and if you wondered why, here's a possible answer. Peaches is one of the artists who collaborated with Aguilera on the pop songster's upcoming new album, Bionic, due out June 8.

Peaches recently performed Peaches Christ Superstar, a one-person version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar, in Berlin, Germany, so she knows a thing or two about musical theatre. But now she's moving on to a different medium. She's in a new film called Ivory Tower, which also includes spots from Feist, Chilly Gonzales, Tiga and...

Peaches — "Billionaire"

in
By CHARTattack Staff March 19, 2010 12:16 pm
Peaches' video for I Feel Cream's "Billionaire" is like a really warped, perverted, half-animated version of The Wizard Of Oz. I'm not sure why there's a human bag of popcorn walking around, but the Cowardly Lion inhaling chocolate eclairs off the floor is pretty hilarious, as is the winged monkey and Glenda The Good Witch smoking a huge doob....

Peaches Christ Superstar, Peaches' planned staging of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar, has risen from the dead, three days after it was crucified.  It seems the Romans German authorities could not contend with Peaches Christ Superstar's powers, and it appears to have overcome even crucifixion itself.

Peaches Christ Superstar, Peaches' stripped down version of Andrew Lloyd Webber's Jesus Christ Superstar musical, has been thwarted by a hideous, disfigured, masked man living beneath the stage of Paris' opera house. Um, sorry, we mean Webber and Germany. Peaches was due to perform a solo version of the musical, in which she would sing all the...
