These short-lived cult New Yorkers were an all-female combo sporadically and variously back by a number of famed metal musicians, including the likes of Overkill's Bobby Gustafson, among others, but despite being around the '80s they only released one record - this self-titled rocker which somehow managed to combine sweaty Joan Jett-styled innuendo with a goofy White Zombie-meets-Danzig oily sleaze. Hell, any band that can have members called Venus Penis Crusher, Queen Vixen, Lord Roadkill, and Donna She Wolf have just got to be worth the entry fee alone, but for the most part despite the novelty feeling this is still a decent metal album with the likes of 'Conqueress', 'I Wish You Were A Beer' and 'Badass Mama' being the most notable. Perfect rock n' roll for a silly night out, and it's a shame the cult status never propelled them to dizzier heights.
7/10
