The new Violet Violet 7" has a load of puss cats on the sleeve. It's called c.c.c.cat so it all sort of makes sense. I couldn't remember what these folks sounded like but I'm quite liking this new single. Shouty female fronted indie rock which is noisy and has more spunk than the contents of Marc Almonds stomach at 6am after a particularly busy evening. It's kind of like on angry Florence Of The Machine or something if you're after some sort of contemporary reference. Whatever it is it has ample balls and we like things with balls... CD and 7" on NR One!
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
"C-C-C-Cat" is the band's fourth single and the tastiest morsel to date from Norwich's feistiest femme threesome. Violet Violet landed the number 21 spot in Artrocker's Singles Of The Year with their 'Bring! Bring! EP'. ("Echoes of bands like Huggy Bear, Gertrude and Bikini Kill - shouty vocals, angry 'bitchy' lyrics and big punk riffs, almost enough to recall the great Babes in Toyland" - Artrocker) The girls hold nothing back on this new track This is 'gossip pop' at its best - purring fans will cry for more, which is just as well as their second album 'The City Is Full Of Beasts' is out this August.
