Spewing
the sort of unrepentant, biker-bar hard rock that's glory days ended
with the breakup of Guns N' Roses, Betty Blowtorch are four
leather-pants-wearing gals from L.A. singing about wanton sex, petty
jealousy, and your usual rock & roll subject matter with conviction
and just a tiny bit of irony. Singer Bianca Butthole's former band,
Butt Trumpet, was a silly punk band and Betty Blowtorch have definitely
come up from that scene too. But they sound more at home pulling off
fiery metal leads and busting rock star moves than they would in a dank
punk club. Raunchier than the Donnas and feistier than the all-girl nu
metal band Kittie, the gals from Betty Blowtorch write some catchy
tunes, some a bit pop-sounding like "No Integrity" and others more
Nashville Pussy-like, such as "Hell on Wheels." They are equally adept
at both pop and hard rock. On the song "Size Queen," Vanilla Ice makes
an incredibly embarrassing appearance rapping about his giant wanger.
The song is a sort of editorial from Betty Blowtorch letting guys know
that size does indeed matter. Though all this material has been tread
upon a million times before, Betty Blowtoch manage to keep it lively.
