Description
Girlsperm – “The Muse Ascends” LP
The second album from girlSperm, following-up their 2017 debut, gSp. A no wave/post punk trio: Layla Gibbon (Skinned Teen, and former M.R.R. columnist), Marissa Magic (Stillsuit, Mozart, Neon), and Tobi Vail (Bikini Kill, Frumpies). Minimal twin guitar attack and chanted gang vocals backed by heavily thumped drum beats. Catchy, no wave post punk, like a spikier, more confrontational Sleator Kinney, combined witht he DIY looseness of Y-Pants. “The new sound of the international girl gang underground” (erm?)
