Some Girls - Heaven's Pregnant Teens
Reviewed by david
As one of the more formidable and offensive acts in hardcore, Some Girls’ tenacity to continue creating deafeningly nauseating audible chaos has led them to Heaven’s Pregnant Teens. An LP at 25 minutes, but an LP nonetheless, and it even includes a PiL cover (Religion II). Pulling itself together piece by piece from the gamut of modern hardcore, Some Girls features Wes Eisold (American Nightmare, Give Up the Ghost) on vocals, The Locust’s (and ex-Swing Kids, Heroin, Holy Molar member) Justin Pearson on bass, Over My Dead Body/Unbroken alum Rob Moran (who has left the band since recording) on guitar, and The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower’s Chuck Rowell also on guitar, in addition to drummer Sal Gallegos, formerly of Secret Fan Club. If you’re expecting Some Girls to have toned itself down a bit, you’re gonna be disappointed. The band is at the top of its game, still tearing the throat of the hardcore scene with whatever dull instrument is at its disposal. The imagery of each song is as harrowing and vicious as a porno filmed on location in an abandoned cemetery, and if there’s an another San Diego band harboring as many sick ideas as Some Girls, be sure to let us know. The band is just as unrelenting in its music, thrashing their way through all thirteen songs in true no-holds-barred fashion. The record surges between spazzy blast-beats, fuzzy maniacal innovativeness, and pure adrenal aggression. Couple the description with each member’s previous affiliations, and you’ll get the idea.
