Being a fan
of this fab 4 since I can remember I had to take the time to really
think what I was going to say for the latest effort of GIRLSCHOOL’s
Believe. With more than over 5 albums
under their belt these British gals know how to do it again in
style with an album packed with pure rock n’ roll punch.
From various all girl groups to date GIRLSCHOOL
have surpassed them all as far as talent, originality and gusto
has to offer and such patience with endurance to stay on top,
the group paved the way for many women musicians to surface. GIRLSCHOOL’s
prior releases, let me take for example here, Love
At First Bite was one to push the limits on guitar
elemental structure and overall rhythmic cadence, for me this
was the album that really took form into a solid musical being
of its own.
Believe
as a whole shows the growth of musicianship as well as life based
situations in general for which one can so easily hear with the
newer material. Kim McAuliffe’s guitar harmonies blend with
easy to Denise Dufort’s unforced beats that compliment Jackie
Chambers’s melodic guitar style bringing in the killer rhythmic
bass lines of Enid Williams creating a force so powerful, yet
unstoppable. From prior releases the group has put out they illustrate
an unmarked ability that only these women know how to do and do
it well. From a first listening observation of Come On Up
to Hold On Tight thru the rest of the CD plus the following
2 bonus tracks, GIRLSCHOOL dishes up the best
novel metal n’ roll this side of the Mississippi. Confident
with musical prowess touched with finale finesse GIRLSCHOOL
remains timeless & infinite….with nothing to loose.
Way to go girls…cheers ya lot \m/!
