While the mystery of the dinosaur’s disappearance can partially be explained now, the one about the slow extinction of glam punkers on the British soil is still an unresolved issue…
I don’t know if BUBBLEGUM SCREW was born after some crazy scientist extracted a piece of DNA from a frilled shirt that was fossilized under Soho’s pavement, but thanks to this band, the genre could finally be reborn in Kate and Pippa’s kingdom.
“Screwphoria” comes out in a cover à la MANIC STREET PREACHERS and offers us some songs built on solid STOOGES/DEAD BOYS foundations with a touch of glam. These tracks are often underlined with some sexy backing vocals reminding me of Lady Bittersweet’s in SPARKLING BOMBS. The album was released to strike a blow!
If it happens that these guys are not unfortunately buried beneath tons of meteorite dust, then we could hear about them in a near future as they have the looks, the attitude and quite a few exciting hits under their arm! Very good job./Franckie.http://bubblegumscrew1.bandcamp.com/
