BABETTE UND DIE SCHMETTERLINGS – Zwölf Space Punk Power Hits

Description

The Return of Babette Vageena. As “Schreckliches Mädchen” (“Terrible Girl”). In German. 12 lively songs with snotty-cheeky lyrics, in the tradition of HANS-A-PLAST, ÖSTRO 430 and Nina Hagen. The complete album tingles like a late champagne breakfast, for the necessary sharpness provides the in-between vodka. Also musically they stay true to themselves, the SCHMETTERLINGS flutter blithely through VAGEENAS terrain, bring back the 70’s in full action: “Snacks” sounds a bit like LEWD and VKTMS, “Schreckliches Mädchen” is based on PISTOLS riffs. Babette says, “77% punk in pink. Nothing else.” True.
