U.S. Girls Gem CD

2012 release, the fourth album from Indie singer/songwriter Meghan Remy AKA U.S. Girls. Produced by Slim Twig and with a much more 'band-driven' sound, it retains U.S. Girls' bold and unique musical vision, whilst showcasing an 'improved' fidelity and an emphasis on directly delivered and strikingly present vocals. Gem is a stunning record which merges a fascination with Glam Rock as interpreted by the anti-excess of Patti Smith, an inverted take on Bolan's Pop testosterone and the alienating abstraction of Throbbing Gristle.
