soft and sensitive, and at other times they steam away at full force!

G-SPOT presents us their second full length album, containing thirteen songs and over fifty minutes of mighty fine punk rock music. The album has got two sides, like the title already suggests. One side tells you to 'Come Here', it's the sensitive side of G-SPOT. Listen to "Beautiful Face" for example. The other side tells you to 'Go Away', it's the punky side of the band, telling you to bugger off and leave the band alone. The two sides are also very well presented in the CD booklet. But hey, is this only my imagination? Is this really a drawing of two different vaginas???? With a bandname like that, I wouldn't be surprised. The 'red' vagina asks you to 'come here', while the dark blue/green vagina tells you to 'go away'. Anyway, I am drifting away a bit from what I am supposed to do here, and that is to describe the music of G-SPOT to you. Think about NO DOUBT, with Nina Hagen on vocals. Yep, the band has got two sides in their music as well. Sometimes it's soft and sensitive, while at other times, they really steam away at full force (f.e. in "Revolutio-nairy"). Although, the CD contains much more. Put the CD in your vagina…….oops sorry… I mean PC of course, and you'll see some nice pictures and an explanation and instruction for using 'triple mantra'. A "Triple Mantra Meditation" of over thirteen minutes closes the CD. G-SPOT consists of Gail Silverman on vocals and acoustic guitar, Donald Dixon on bass, Dennis Winge on guitar and Phil Bloom on drums. "Believe In Us" is the quadruplicated version of BABES IN TOYLAND, while "Call On You" brings us back in the real world again. Think about it how you want to, bottom line is that this New York City based band shows a lot of variation. The packaging of the promotional stuff was very well taken care of by the way, and the fortune cookies tasted very well! Most of the G-spots are very well hidden, this one is wide open for you, but don't come too close!!!
