You at the back there – PUT IT AWAY!
Few bands in the world have the opportunity to celebrate a 30th Anniversary together and fewer still have done it with such gusto and fire as four sister sledgehammers from London called Girlschool. Yup, classic metalhead bands are on the march and UK legends GIRLSCHOOL are amongst them. Forget The Bangles, L7, Vixen, The Runaways … pah, also-rans!
And they still sound like a breath of fresh air ... albeit with more than a hint of smudged, misapplied lipstick lingering in the wing. They may be in their 40s but they’re still trailblazers first coming to prominence supporting Motorhead on their 'Overkill' tour in ’79 and still kicking serious freckle live albeit a little older, a little wiser but definitely still kicking ass.
Original members, Kim McAuliffe Enid Williams and Denise Dufort are joined by Jackie Chambers – who replaces original guitarist, the late Kelly Johnson R.I.P. - who sadly passed away in July 2007.
This is, and always has been, a rock band to be reckoned with ...
