RICHARD BACCHUS & THE LUCKIEST GIRLS
Former D Generation guitarist Richard Bacchus has a healthy respect for the Bowery-bred bite of old-school punk. His ringing Thunders-style guitar has a patina of grime, and the songs have a chunky power that recalls hooky, hard-rock mavens Cheap Trick.
—Chris Parker, Independent Weekly
Richard Bacchus and the Luckiest Girls mix the sparkle and boogie of T. Rex with the sleazy street wise sneer of the New York Dolls and top it off with a healthy dose of angst-ridden punk pop in the vein of the Buzzcocks and the Pixies. Bacchus' tunes remind one of the concise rock n' roll narratives of Chuck Berry's Maybelline or Memphis, TN set within a vivid "Mean Streets" environment worthy of the best of Gansta Rap (Biggie, Wu-Tang) ; a demi-monde populated by beautiful losers, hustlers with hearts of gold and all manner of angels or demons, now flightless from flying too close to the sun.
Onstage they erupt with a rollicking joie de vivre in almost flagrant flouting of the often darkly poingant subject matter. Informed by every rock record from Howlin' Wolf to Franz Ferdinand they seem to say "we're all stuck down here together, so let's have a good time. -Rev.Timmy James
