Talk about a highly anticipated album! Teenage Graffiti, by The Pink Spiders, has fans all over the world pining for more. With a proposed final release date of June 27, these guys have teased fans for sometime now, and little wonder, this is righteous rock.
The new CD has garnered more than half a million plays on their MySpace.com site, from only two songs. "Little Razorblade" and "Modern Swingers" have been up lighting up the Net as highly played songs. The band’s MySpace boasts nearly 60,000 friends listed, which is more than "kinda good!"
This CD will be the band's first major label release; Suretone and Geffen Records have what looks to be quite a hit on their hands. Punk music with dance rhythm and pop words, what a dangerous mix this could be. Band members Matt Friction: Vocals/Guitar, Jon Decious: Bass, and Bob Ferrari: "World's Greatest Drummer" (
After storming onto the Nashville scene, they quickly made on iconoclastic statement with their pink and jet-black apparel and dark shades. The punkish side to these guys embraces the anarchy of binge drinking, wild parties, and loose women. The pop side sings to all the teenage girls of the world with a dance beat. It is kind of like the Sex Pistols meet Iggy Pop and do Buddy Holly.
"Soft Smoke" is an anarchist's anthem with words like "these New York City police are all fuckin' liars." Where are the Ramones when you need them? Punching you in the face with the fist pounding sound of a band way beyond its years, this stuff could cause a revival in that crazy sound I embraced in the seventies, and it actually has a musical quality to it for a change!
