Ever heard of this Australian band? Me neither. But I just got a promo of this brother/sister rock act's six-song "BLOOD, SWEAT AND BEERS" EP to review for Detritus... giving it a first spin and it sounds pretty rockin' to me... no-frills, hard-ass pub rock with a big ole AC/DC influence... kinda like Airbourne if they had a chick singer. Check'em out and feel free to comment....
(Note the Stryper patch on the shoulder of the guy's jacket.)

Their site quotes a review which describes them as "AC/DC with the vocals of Tina Turner while being penetrated from behind" -- once I read that, I was sold before I even heard a note

Correction to my original post: the BLOOD, SWEAT AND BEERS EP is five tracks, not six. Now I feel better.

She does sort of sound like a metal Tina Turner.

I really like the female-fronted AC/DC sound.
