Find Me A Drink Home,
Cheap GirlsI really wanted to like this band... I mean what a name! I envisaged a boozy blues-influenced band, I guess a little like The Hold Steady. A band that sung about their experiences with floozies and babes who have thrown their underwear at them while playing at some flea-pit in Tennessee. Sadly... well, Cheap Girls are a massive disappointment. They remind me a little bit of early REM or The Replacements, just not as good. The songs tend to float past and are neither driving or hooky enough to keep me interested. Lyrically they're quite an interesting band as they sing about beating loneliness and depression, but musically it doesn't quite stack up. For me at least.
