biographical info
If your musical interest is limited to CORRUPTED, DROP DEAD and DOOM you can skip this review. So just last issue I referred to The Hammer as a modern day Bethlehem and listening to the debut CD by THE LORRAINAS it sure as hell sounds like the baby days of CBGB's when punk rock was new, dangerous and exciting. THE LORRAINAS combine their jagged riffs with hints of melody; while their driving rhythms and sharp hooks add a broken hearted urgency to the songs. The combination of catchy punk rock hooks, hints of surf and Lasha's great vocals will have you humming along and singing in no time. Sorry you won't find any lyrics about puppy mills, nuclear annihilation or veganism...just down and dirty sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. If you have a thing for early BLONDIE/ THUNDERS / RAMONES inspired punk, check out THE LORRAINAS. (Review by Craig from EqualizingXdistort Zine)
