"Et quand je dis que les Corey O’s c’est le groupe le plus cool du monde c’est parce qu’ils expriment quelque chose que je n’avais jamais vécu jusqu’ici. Le Ladyfest, Bristol, The Gossip à Londres, samedi et lundi soirs furent des jours exceptionnels pour moi. Je donnerai toutes les Eurockéennes du monde pour les revivre. Tu vois ces gens qui ont eu les mêmes peurs, frustrations, envies, amours que toi et qui on font cette musique exceptionnelle. A un concert des Corey O’s, tu te sens vivant, heureux, tu as envie de tomber amoureux et personnellement aucun autre groupe ne me fait cet effet. Tu as juste envie de prendre tout le monde dans tes bras"

irene has also played in lesbo pig (with our friends ros and anna); michal and lisa have also played together in headfall, the awkward dancers (with our friend george) and little targets.
our 7" is out right now on everard - buy it from everard records and good record shops
there are 350. they are on white vinyl and nicely packaged sleeves. (the nerd-version in silkscreened cloth bags have all sold out).
review in maximumrocknroll.........
"i think i saw these girls years ago during ladyfest brighton, and they were one of my favourite bands of the weekend. i always like stuff where it sounds like the band is in the midst of figuring out how to play everything. it starts out pretty straightforward and quickly gets weirder with lots of guitar-destroying squiggles and sounds and slightly off-time tribal drums. all three of them seem to just chime in whenever they feel like it. it’s almost like if INFLATABLE BOY CLAMS was slightly less weird and a little more straightforward. and from england. definitely on the goofier, weirder arty side of post punk. awesome".
