yeah, it looks jammed packed with hipsters

"it may not even sound good".. yea. it doesnt. wanted to like these girls really bad when they came around last year.. but it was just god-awful. please tell me we wont be wasting hype on them

"the way punk used to be before top 40 came along and sat its fat ass on originality" gimme a break. nestle in my boobies was mildly amusing

Yeah they're not so punk after all. Hell I can see that one chick's cameltoe. I mean, gross me out man.

yeah & That is the lamest fucking arm tat I ever seen bro

you make it sound like they're gg allin.

they're just a silly, cute band. not scary at all

vivian girls?

She's a tight pants wearing ass nigga (uh huh).

Ladies of The Coathangers -- I have plenty of coke back at my apartment... Let's make some mistakes, shall we?

congrats BV commenters for not saying "i'd hit it" and comment on the article... they're show at Death By Audio last tuesday ruled... http://www.acidmarshmallow.com/2008/10/coathangers.html

I heard they're actually going to stop letting women vote now because of bands like this.

vivian girls write great songs.

coathangers are just cute(ish) indie girls with tataoos being silly.

I enjoy both bands, but they really aren't in the same league, unless you're such a huge fucking dumbass that you just see "girls with tattoos" when you watch either band.

No Talent

their mothers should have used coat hangers. if ya know what i mean.

first of all, i was there. it was not "jammed". and no one was going "wild". and they are not "good", not even in a "good because it's bad" kind of way.

i mean, playing the bass is just really, not, that, difficult. she should learn. i understand the concept of confronting the idea that good bands need to have good musicians. but i just can't get on the whole "worse is better" train here.

pretty & nice and the coathangers both played and this is what gets written up? give me a break, how could you even watch these girls after seeing pretty & nice

This band fucking rules! YOU guys all suck

This band fucking rules! YOU guys all suck

I had an abortion and it did not sound anything like The Coathangers. More like Pretty & Nice?

Look at the photos. These girls are clearly having some fun. Remember having fun at shows?

The Coathangers are godawful. "It doesn't sound good"?? So they're awesome cause they sound like shit? How depressing. Please don't print positive things about them just because they're girls. There are plenty of girls out there who can really fucking play - these girls have no talent.

i just listened on myspace and they're really bad. poor man's miko mika. also vivian girls sound nothing like them, vivian girls are actually pretty good, unlike these ladies.

I'm sure the Vivian Girls are relieved that you assholes now have someone else to hate on.

in an intelligent reader, this might make you stop to think about whether you're maybe just... dickheads?

I'm sure no such reckoning will happen here.

So what if their show is more pep-rally than symphony? I was there, and it was thrilling to experience something pure like this again. Totally unchecked in attitude, they put their personalities out there, creating an atmosphere much like a slumber-party. And the audience responded. Maybe it wasn't 'wild' but it was the one show I saw this year at CMJ that I'm not likely to forget.

you fucking hipsters make me sick

go back to new jersey

I would totally bang every chick in this band. There I said it.

talentless pieces of shit. horrible tattoo on that girl. dumbass!

Dear Haters,

These girls rock. Ive seen plenty of their shows and i can say for one that they never claimed to be anything like the Vivian Girls so dont put them in any category because they've made their own. I would like to see any one of you play an instrument... oh whats that.... you cant?? thought so, and wait ...oh what... you dont have a record lable... yeah thats what i thought. so stop downing all that haterade and stop blogging about all the shows you go to. oh and dont let someones tattoos get you so angry.. they arent on you... DUMBASS.

"their mothers should have used coat hangers. if ya know what i mean."

HA

actually i both play an instrument (many of them actually) and have a record label. and i would like to say that it must be a terrible feeling as a female musician to watch these girls get praised. they are exploiting their own perceived shortcomings in intelligence as a result of being women ("nestle in my boobies!")- or should I say they are being exploited? but the joke is on them, sadly. i feel bad for women who are challenging themselves to make creative and exciting art who have to sit by and watch this stuff sell. how discouraging that must be.

and by the way, having a record label is not an accomplishment. all it means is someone else thinks they can make money off of you.

I think that all of the heavy-handed "these girls are so punk" comparisons need to be put to rest, because they actually don't do all of the bullshit punk posturing implied by that and their image isn't that punk [maybe w. the exception of the tattooed drummer / occasional singer].

fuckin haters, the coathangers rule!!
