chaos:baby

I went to see chaos:baby last week, they are a great band. So young...so pure...anyway, they've been away for a bit replacing the bassist and drummer and adding another guitarist, having seen both incarnations I have to say I prefer this one. chaos:baby are growing up.
The singer Laura Le Rox does like a scream but with the new line up, it's more controlled. As is the whole sound, it still is very raw but the rhythm is tight. The extra guitar and backing vocals by the lovely Holly (she's ginger, as Laura introduced her) adds depth to the sound. They've got some great songs and a few new ones which seem to be more mature. 'Heroine' is a song about sharing a house with junkies who nick your stuff all the time.'Hiv Barbie' is about a girl who rated herself, was a bit of a slapper and ended up with hiv. New songs 'Fight Manual/Get your liver' ready is class, Laura's vocals having the slightest hint of Poly Styrene.
So they are doing a couple of gigs in London soon so if you get a chance get yourself a dose of chaos, you know you want to.

I'm off to Sonic Rock Solstice this weekend, so will let you know how it goes.
Have a rocking weekend...
