Our Take

POISON GIRLS - Real Woman

If you're looking for a dose of punk attitude with a side of feminist fierceness, look no further than POISON GIRLS' latest album, "Real Woman." Fronted by the incomparable, Vi Subversa, this band has been shaking up the scene since the 70s, and they show no signs of slowing down.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, you're hit with a wall of sound that's raw and unapologetic. The guitars are gritty, the drums are pounding, and Vi's vocals are as powerful as ever. The lyrics tackle everything from social injustice to personal empowerment, all delivered with a punch that's impossible to ignore.

Tracks like "Piano Lessons" and "Criminal" showcase the band's signature blend of punk rock and social commentary, while "Breaking In" offers a more melodic, introspective moment. But don't be fooled – even in the quieter moments, POISON GIRLS never lose their edge.

"Real Woman" is a reminder that punk rock is still alive and kicking, and in the hands of POISON GIRLS, it's as relevant as ever. So, if you're looking to add a bit of rebellion to your playlist, give this album a spin. Just be prepared to be blown away – these girls are the real deal.

About the artist

Poison Girls

Poison Girls were an essential part of the UK's vibrant punk scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Led by the fearless and outspoken Vi Subversa, the band combined catchy melodies with politically charged lyrics, creating a sound that was as thought-provoking as it was danceable. Known for their fierce DIY ethos, Poison Girls weren't afraid to tackle taboo subjects such as feminism, anarchism, and environmentalism in their music. Their anthemic songs like "State Control" and "Persons Unknown" still resonate with audiences today, proving that their messages are just as relevant now as they were back then. Despite never achieving mainstream success, Poison Girls carved out a niche for themselves in the punk world, earning a dedicated following of fans who admired their uncompromising stance and refusal to conform to industry norms. Vi Subversa's distinctive vocals, paired with the band's unique blend of punk, post-punk, and reggae influences, set them apart from their contemporaries and solidified their place in music history. While the band may have disbanded in the mid-1980s, their impact on the punk scene can still be felt today. Poison Girls' legacy lives on in the countless bands they inspired, and their music continues to be celebrated by fans old and new. So crank up the volume, raise a fist in solidarity, and let Poison Girls remind you that punk isn't just about rebellion – it's about making a difference.
