BETTY BLOWTORCH
Last Call (Foodchain)
Reviewed by Jason Thornberry

---

"Rock My World" begins this CD as the band gets ready to rock an audience: "We're Betty Blowtorrrch! And we're from Hollywood! And We...Don't...Give...A...FUUUUUCK!!!" The late Bianca Butthole's epitaph is now deposited into a rarities collection known as Last Call, begging for you pass over it in the record shop on your way to something more unique. What ever set this haggard, heavily tattooed, all-girl biker punk band apart from L7, Babes In Toyland, or Cycle Sluts From Hell? Only they could have told you. On this final release Ms. Butthole sings about masturbation, and diarrhea, with songs like "Shut Up and Fuck", and "Party ‘Til Ya Puke", as well as some cra-zay radio interviews even eleven-year-old boys won't find worthy of a second listen.
