Pretty Girls Make Graves

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

Named for either the Smiths song or a line from Kerouac's {-The Dharma Bums}, Seattle, WA's Pretty Girls Make Graves began touring the country only months after the Murder City Devils, which Derek Fudesco also played bass in, called it quits. During the summer of 2001, Fudesco started writing songs with friends Andrea Zollo (whom he played with in Death Wish Kids), ex-Bee Hive Vaults members Nathen Johnson and Nick DeWitt, plus Kill Sadie's Jason Clark. Their first release, a self-titled, four-song EP full of bursts of energy and emotion rel...[more]

Four tracks from the Murder City Devils, Death Wish Kids, Kill Sadie spin off band. The vocalist has a strong voice that's very similar to Bikini Kill's Kathleen Hanna. Actually, Pretty Girls Make Graves seems like a shoe in for Kill Rock Stars: punk rock with catchy songs and very strong female vocal work. Good stuff.

The Seattle quintet's follow-up to the universally acclaimed The New Romance, and their first album since the addition of keyboardist Leona Marrs, is by far their most ambitious, multifarious, and scorching to date. Produced by Colin Stewart (Black Mountain, Destroyer), Elan Vital provides the band with a bigger, bolder canvas with which to weave their magic. The new material, road-tested at gigs around the globe with Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand, and Death Cab For Cutie, shows a blindingly ori   [ read more ]

Following their breakthrough releases for the Lookout and Dim Mak labels, the Seattle quintet Pretty Girls Make Graves emerge with their hotly anticipated Matador debut, and a late contender for best album of 2003. That 'The New Romance' is as anthemic and explosive as 'Good Health' is no surprise; but the band's compositional skills have grown by leaps and bounds, along with their flair for the dramatic. Features the single 'This Is Our Emergency.' Produced by Phil Ek.
