The
music of Thelma and the Sleaze, throughout these five songs, is somewhere
between punk rock n roll and psychedelic metal, if such a genre even
exists. I’ve listened to nearly every
genre of music in my time, and when I was eighteen I listened to a lot of
Marilyn Manson. I bought “Smells Like
Children”, but got the version where he covers L7 songs instead. In many ways, that reminds me of Thelma and
the Sleaze.
These
are just some great old fashioned distorted guitar riffs, the soul of Janis
Joplin and modern contemporaries with One-Eyed Doll on some level as well. This also has its bits of instrumental
portions of the cassette, as not all songs need to be flat out sing alongs, and
I do enjoy that as well.
Thelma
and the Sleaze just seems to be one of those bands that either you know them and
love them or just haven’t heard of them yet.
For those who have not yet heard them, here is your introduction. You’re
welcome.
