Members
of The Melvins, At The Drive-In and Le Butcherettes are ready to unleash
their new band upon the world. Crystal Fairy just released their
self-titled debut album on February 24th through Ipecac Recordings. The
new 11-song release features the backdrop of King Buzzo (Buzz Osborne)
and Dale Crover from The Melvins and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez from At The
Drive-In. The combination of this trio gives the music a jolt of grunge,
alternative and punk, which allows lead singer Teri Gender Bender to
deliver a raw, stellar high-powered performance.
The album
begins with the quick, punk-like pace of "Chiseler" as Bender's vocals
soar over the screeching guitars and thunderous drumming. Crystal Fairy
bring on the rage of "Necklace Of Divorce" as Teri's voice takes over
the song with raw emotion before heading into the big wall of sound from
"Moth Tongue." The band digs-in for the bass-heavy rhythm of "Secret
Agent Rat" as the song is sung in Spanish. The album wraps up with the
chugging, aggressive power of "Bent Teeth" and the hard rock attack of
"Vampire X-Mas" as the band flex their grunge muscle paving the way for
Teri's wildly exciting vocals. To find out more about Crystal Fairy and
