Girls Against Boys - Cruise Yourself (Remastered) (Suspended Gold) Vinyl LP Record

Originally released in 1994, GVSB's second full-length release for Touch and Go Records, Cruise Yourself, is characterized by catch vocal lines wrapped in a sonic double-bass low end. Guitars filter in and out of songs driven by heavy powerhouse groove drumming. There is noise, there is melody. "Tucked In" churns, "Kill the Sexplayer" pounds relentlessly, "(l) Don't Got A Place" glides, and "Psychic Know-How" blows your head off... but you regain it immediately in the ominous groove of "Explicitly Yours."With an intensity approaching that of /abe/ mates the Jesus Lizard, GVSB conjures a world fraught with sexual tension and sardonic disaffection. Akin more to the leering, grinding rock of Brits like the Fall than to the hardcore D. C. scene that spawned it, GVSB dispenses its lurid night music with a gusto surpassing even the band's previous set, Venus Luxure No. 17 Baby." - Billboard, 1994"A mutated product of Washington, DC, uni-punk, willingly exiled fo New York suffer-tude, GVSB crosses Ministry's love of rhythmic noise, the Fall's meditation/ rants and Cop Shoot Cop's self mocking melodrama without pledging allegiance to any of their respective camps. Cherubic Bukowskis all, they embrace concepts that might seem contradictory or gimmicky to others with an unexploitative directness echoing their own telegraphic sexuality." - CMJ New Music Monthly, 1994
