A new EP review for you from eyeplug.net. Loving this one!
50 Ft Woman – ‘Menage à Trois’
(EP, own label)
Debut EP from a London quintet who emerge with a well-released image and sound. Fittingly, Menage à Trois features three tracks, with opener ‘Psychic Hygiene’ providing an introduction to the group’s twisted bump’n’grind, lyrical dexterity and sassy soloing.
‘(Strictly) Only Swinging’ offers a salacious peek behind suburban lace curtains which builds to a churning sonic froth of desire.
As guitars Buzzcock and front (50ft) woman Minki’s vulnerable diction evoke Deborah Harry, ‘You’re In Love With Love (But You Ain’t In Love With Me)’ coalesces as a Blondie-esque slice of bittersweet angst.
