Influences
What? Aside from alientation, loneliness, being a freak, outcast and misfit, angst, rebellion, abuse, drunkenness and middle-class boredom?

Sounds Like
Fucking HELL! What I've heard, so make up your own fucking mind: " The Go-Gos on crack, the bastard child of Debbie Harry and Joey Ramone, Dickies disciples, if Mike Ness were a girl, angry Blondie, The Ramones with a girl singer." I've also been called the female Joey Ramone, because no one can understand what the fuck I am saying. One manager turned us down because she said I "sounded like Belinda Carlisle - and that is not a good thing!". We've also been compared to The Muffs, The Fastbacks, The Rezillos, The Goops. Three-minute pop songs with sing-along parts by a gal raised on country music of the 60s, AM radio of the 70s, and punk rock of the early 80s.
Getting our priorities straight here: Yo, muthafuckas! If you want to join our mailing list, do it here:
As seen in 'Punk Rock Zombie Kung Fu Cat Fight', 'Dear Dio', 'Eight' and other quality films! Frankensteined from: Vatican Commandos, Starkist, The Vacant Lot, Sloth, Mental Decay, Adrenalin OD (AOD), and Sux.
The typical band bio shite:
- NEW CD "Chinese Democracy" out NOW on www.amprecords.com
- We were Killer Kowalski until the wrestler threatened to sue us.
- We have also have a CD "All Hopped up on Goofballs" & are on 1000 comps.
- Yes, it's THAT Kitty Kowalski that used to own Coney Island High in NYC, from Troma's 'Terror Firmer', that writes for Coolgrrrls.com, that was in that magazine and in that nudie film, blah blah blah...
We've toured the US, Europe & Canada, and played with: Iggy Pop, The Ramones, The Toy Dolls, The Dickies, The Dictators, The Rezillos, The Undertones, The Queers, D Generation, The Briefs, The Aquabats, Groovie Ghoulies, Turbo ACs, Vice Squad, Less Than Jake, Stiff Little Fingers, The Get Up Kids, Snuff, Me First & The Gimme Gimmes, The Muffs, The Paybacks, Gore Gore Girls and many KICK ASS bands.
We have a web site, ya know, for the kids:http://www.thekowalskis.com
Steal our music. We don't care. Hell, we're flattered that anyone would even WANT to steal it. Rip and burn! Music Promotion via MusicSubmit.com BY THE WAY - I delete those gay "Thanks for the add!" images and shite. Please post something entertaining or original or at least personal. Thanks.
Nah, unfortunately our ex bassist deleted it as a parting gift. :( As you see, we're back though! Thanks for re-adding us dopes, hope we get to play a show together again soon! - King
