Album Notes

SHIRAGIRL doesn't play by the rules- we make our own. In fact, "make your own" pretty much sums up our whole philosophy- make your own sound, make your own stage, make your own tourbus, make your own statement.

SHIRAGIRL is fronted by SHIRA, on the mic. She rolls with her ALL-GIRL CREW, which includes kickass guitarists, DJs, skaters, artists, videographers, and musicians.

Our signature brand of electro-punk is fierce, rowdy, feminist and fun- with every track retaining its own unique style. We love to break down the walls that exist between music genres by dabbling in everything from hip-hop to metal. Never one to write a boring love song, Shira's lyrics satirize pop culture and rail against life's injustices.

We don't like to brag. But we've done a lot in our short 3 years. We've crashed- and conquered- the Warped Tour. We've recorded a track with Tim Armstrong of Rancid/The Transplants. We've danced onstage with Peaches and climbed Le Tigre's stage at Coachella. We bought our own tourbus, painted it hot pink, and traveled the country rocking out. We recorded over 200 hours of video footage throughout our exploits. We even invaded Europe.

The typical SHIRAGIRL does not like to put her music in a box. Because it's not even about the music- it's so much more. It's a spectacle. It's an adventure. It's a movement. It's way of life.

Don't just take our word for it. Here's what some "critics" have to say:

"Feisty electro bitches!"
- The Village Voice

"Head banging, punk rocking"
- The Daily Pennsylvanian

"Over-the-top performances... heavy distorted guitar, hip-hop beats, props, ballerina meets-metalhead costumes"
- The Record

"The highlight of my afternoon. Quirky hip-hop inspired punk tunes calling for action against just about everything... Shira dominated the crowd with her gyrating moves and venomous vocals"
- Life in a Bungalo

"It’s rare that I play a new submission two times in row without stopping..."

It’s rare that I play a new submission two times in row without stopping. The women of Shiragirl create music full of energy, style and groovy surprises. Vocalist, Shira, is backed by Shadows (DJ Lava) on turntables. This dynamic duo jumbles genres, adds a little scratch here and metal guitar there, with electronic beats and an unstoppable attitude. They collaborate with all-girl crews of ass kicking guitarists, DJ’s, skaters, artists, videographers and musicians and have accomplished an impressive amount in the mere 3 years they’ve been together – from conquering the Warped Tour in 2004 to recording with Tim Armstrong (Rancid/The Transplants). They’ve danced onstage with the mouthwatering Peaches and jumped Le Tigre’s stage at Coachella. The ladies purchased a tourbus, painted it hot pink (of course) and are driving around rockin’ this country – and even made a trip to Europe. Shiragirl are based in Brooklyn, but seem to be living in their hot pink tour bus. Fueled by the edge, sharp and fearless Shiragirl is organizing ShiraGirlz Stage - as part of the whole Warped Tour! We want to catch it this year… this is a band who smashed a giant Barbie doll piñata with a guitar until she spilled out with tampons & candy!

"Yes! I love this album."
author: skratch magazine
                            
Yes! I love this album. Electro-rock is the next big thing. Who can say differently, with bands like The Transplants out there hitting it big? The two girls who make up Shiragirl make some killer fucking music - and NOT RELEASED IN STORES is proof. Although this band can easily be classified as electro-punk, the music is also filled with elements of rap (hey, don't hate); and on one of the tracks there happens to be a special guest. What guest? Well, pick up their album NOT RELEASED IN STORES this year at Warped Tour and listen to it and figure out whom the guest is yourself! I'm not going to tell you everything, but I will give you a tip on where you can pick up this album: check out the Girl Stage at Warped Tour, also known as the Shiragirl stage. "Shiragirl could not get any hotter" is damn right. Don't fucking forget it! -Manda-Dex-Punk
