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.....

Pretty Girls Make Graves

Here is a bit about a band i have been listening too lately, they are really a sound that takes a few listens too, before you really dig what they are doing.

Pretty Girls Make Graves was an art punk band, formed in Seattle in 2001, named after The Smiths song of the same name (which itself was named after a quote from Jack Kerouac's The Dharma Bums, which Kerouac took from a correspondence between Alan Ginsberg and Bob Dylan). Andrea Zollo and Derek Fudesco had played together previously in The Hookers, as well as The Death Wish Kids and Area 51 along with Dann Gallucci, with whom Derek had formed Murder City Devils. Not long before the Murder City Devils disbanded, Derek and Andrea formed Pretty Girls Make Graves along with Jay, Nick and Nathan. They played the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in 2004.

Pitchfork Media announced that the band was breaking up on 29 January 2007. Their final two shows were 9 June 2007, in Seattle

Here is a video of their song Nocturnal House that I really like and just love the video. It reminds me a lot of the group Jack Off Jill.

Enjoy......
