Canaille's choice 23/6/2012

"All the great post-punk bands are invoked on this London based, all-girl four-piece's dark, dramatic and devastating debut. Savages make us dream of what it must have been like to have been around to hear, in real time, the debut releases by Public Image Ltd, Magazine, Siouxsie and the Banshees and Joy Division, to feel, as those incredible records hit the shops, that unearthly power and sense of a transmission from a satellite reality". Guardian
The line-up: Jehnny Beth (vocals), Ayse Hassan (bass), Fay Milton (drums) and Gemma Thompson (guitar).
