Any fans?
Got their latest, and like it a lot!
Often described as a female fronted Motorhead.
I know a lot of metal fans don`t like female fronted bands, but i think she fits the raw music very well..

I'm a very big fan of the band. I think they are very underrated. I have the following albums:
Skew Siskin, What the Hell, Album of the Year, Peace Breaker. All very good ones.

I saw them a few years ago when they opened for Motörhead.

Their music is IMHO similar to Motörhead and the vocals are a mixture of Janis Joplin and Bon Scott.

Unfortunately the albums Electric Chat and Voices From the War are out of print.

Thanks for the info ghost.
To bad with those oop albums.
Ever since i got their latest i have been planning to look for their back catalogue.

I bet they are awesome live!! Did they do the song with Lemmy?

Yes when I saw them they were awesome! Unfortunately they didn't do a song together with Lemmy. It would have been cool.

don't lump me in with those guys, i love the female voice. Skew Siskin is great. Nina is a pretty unique vocalist & fits the style they play pretty damn well.

I went and listened to some samples after seeing this thread. I like what I heard, I'll look to buy some of their music when I can.

I only have one disc by them, but I've always enjoyed it. Never bothered to track down other releases, but if I were to find a copy in the used bins, I'd definately pick it up. I'm not a big fan of female vocals in my metal, but Nina rocks.
