Album Review: Peaches - Rub

"Interestingly, the humour seems to have evaporated."

More Peaches More Peaches

Rub returns to a more purist electro sound to accompany the deep filthy XXX-minded nastiness that we have come to expect from Peaches.

Kim Gordon and Feist make guest appearances but this is Peaches' show. Interestingly, the humour seems to have evaporated and all we're left with is the insistent "Rub, bitch, rub" issuing from the lips of a dominatrix. I Mean Something makes a grab for relevance as the downward spiral grind gets dark and really heavy. Feeling destroyed after odes to group sex, male genitals and some really nasty break-up songs, Vaginoplasty wearily touches on the need for reconstruction.
