About the Artist
Liv Lovely prefers that you express a strong opinion about her band, the Lovelies. "We're not interested in obtaining middle-of-the-road fans," Liv says. " We'd rather have people hate us or love us." The Milwaukee trio's new album, WHITE LEATHER, will likely confirm you as a lover. As Liv says, "There's a lot of black and white on this album, but not a lot of gray." This is high-contrast rock 'n' roll. Liv's voice conveys both sweet melodies and flat affect, while bassist Barb Lovely's harmonies paint a matter-of-fact later of brightness; instruments bring the hammer down but wrap the blow in velvet. WHITE LEATHER polishes the elements that have been present in the Lovelies all along-concise songwriting and expansive music-yet introduces a band more confident than ever before.
Album Description
The Lovelies are the perfect marriage of loud guitars and velcro-strength melodies. As one fan described them: "...they have L7's crunchy guitars mixed with the hooks of Elastica." In a world dominated by testosterone-driven guy rock, these girls bring the noise and the melody that's been sorely missing on the radio and in your local stadium. Fans of the Breeders, and the aforementioned Elastica, will take to this CD with a vengeance. We're sure of it! There's rockers, ballads and anthems galore on this CD. One listen will make a believer and fan out of you.
