"These fierce women from Venezuela and Chile, residing in northern Spain, are cranking out some vibrant witchy-goth inspired new wave punk. The haunting jams remind me of RAKTA but if they were thriving during the heyday of La Movida Madrilena. In fact they proudly bear the influence of this 1980's Spanish artistic milieu with a cover of "Virgenes Sangrantes" by Derribos Arias. Important feminist themes underlie the existential and mystical lyrics. This is a good soundtrack for parting cobwebs as you romp through the forgotten corner of a remote forest.
