THE PAINS OF BEING PURE AT HEART

Here is a little ban I recently ran across while listening to some indie music and i thought they were blog worthy.

The Pains of Being Pure At Heart are an indie rock band from New York, NY.Their first album was a self-released EP which came out in 2007 through the Painbow label. Their debut self-titled full length album was released on February 3, 2009 via Slumberland Records.The band name comes from an unpublished children’s story that a friend of singer Kip Berman wrote of the same title.[4] In Spring, 2009, the band released a second single, "Young Adult Friction" from their debut album and plan another non-album release in Summer 2009 with an 'a' side is called '!03'

Jack Off Jill

Jack Off Jill, one of my fav's of all time, but these four bitches could not hold it together, to much fighting to not break up........and a shame really cause they had a fantastic sound.

Jack Off Jill was an alternative rock band from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, formed in 1992 by Jessica "Jessicka" Fodera, Tenni "Ah-Cha-Cha" Arslanyan, Robin Moulder, and Michelle "Michelle Inhell" Oliver. Though these four young women were the initial founders, twelve members rotated through the group in its life span, including Scott Putesky, guitarist and co-founder of Marilyn Manson. The band lasted eight years, with only Moulder and Fodera remaining through all its lineups: Moulder wrote the bulk of the music, Fodera all of the lyrics and melodies. The group toured and performed with Marilyn Manson a significant number of times. Like Manson, they were known for raunchy shows. Despite this, the group bore a greater resemblance to riot grrrl groups, some of their songs in particular being musically comparable to riot grrl band Bikini Kill.

Here are a couple of my favorite songs from them, first is 'vivica' awesome song and then 'devils fuck and angels kiss' another great one......enjoy.....
