Let me take you to Spain,
a country that has many economical problems in common with Greece since we
compete in the rate of who has the highest unemployment rate. More specifically
we will go to Madrid in order to find a young all female band under the name
BROKEN LINGERIE. The band was formed in 2012 and they combine many different
rock and metal styles in their sound. Here I will present to you their first
studio release which is the 5 track EP under the title “Lying Words”.
THE COVER: It is a vague image which shows some of the band members
playing their instruments in a live event, I think. It is simple enough and yet
straight to the point.
MUSICAL STYLE: As the band states, BROKEN LINGERIE were created with
a purpose to create a sound that combines many different styles of the rock and
metal sound and I think this statement is accurate enough. The sound basis and
intentions of the band is good old rock ‘n’ roll, but in order to achieve that
they mix it with hard rock and punk rock and there are some times that they
also flirt with traditional heavy metal. I can say that BROKEN LINGERIE
reminded me of a more melodic and popish version of good old GIRLSCHOOL.
COMPOSITIONS: The first studio release of BROKEN LINGERIE includes 5
songs that balance among punk rock, rock ‘n’ roll and hard rock and they have a
modern and dynamic production. The main characteristic that these compositions
have is that they breathe out a party mood and an optimistic feeling.
CONCLUSION: BROKEN LINGERIE is a young band and has some good
ideas and enthusiasm and of course it is talented. The thing though with this
release is that although it is a very pleasant, up tempo listening it fails to
be something more. It is the kind of release that I will listen to without
being bored, but I don’t think that I would ever play it on my own.
