8 Inch Betsy

by Jae Lombardo


8 Inch Betsy

Where are all the punk girls, or should I say grrls? They are at an Eight Inch Betsy show. Talk about my dream mosh pit...mmmm.... punk girls....mosh pit.... If they’re not there, they are at home listening to the band’s long anticipated debut CD, "This Time, Last Time, Every Time".

This CD did not disappoint. It includes some of their tried and true songs such as “Doomed”, everyone's favorite, and “Control” plus some newer tunes like “Bender in Hell” and “Waiting Under your Car”. There really wasn’t a song I didn’t like. They have managed to translate the energy of their live shows onto this tiny little CD. Where do they find the room? I don't think any other music has touched the lips of my CD player since I put the disc in last month. I love waking up to this music.

Eight Inch Betsy’s music keeps you energized for whatever you need to do. Plus, it’s a much better way to start your day than that shot of tequila. Come on, give it a try. You know you want to. Oh, and if you haven't see this band live yet, make it your number one priority. I'm serious.
