Pukkelpop 98 Live

Report Girls Against Boys

"I feel like disco trash, like trash, trash, saxy sex sax, yea, saxy, baby sex yea, say olala, olala". Yeah today Pukkelpop was the place for the hundredth GvsB show in Belgium. So you can't blame us we are a bit tired of this nevertheless excellent and energetic band. The ingredients : a synthesizer interrupted by a loud bass, the sexy, repetitive lyrics from John Spencer look-a-like Scott McCloud and then suddenly, buckets of NOISE. An unique sound unfortunately the ingredients of every song, again and again.So it was no surprise the highlight of the evening was an amusing , danceable song, a new sound we love. One time a classic punkrocksong like "in Like Flynn" could impress me. Summarize: Girls Against Boys on cruise control.
