FFO: Ramones, Runaways, Buzzcocks, The Muffs, L7, Cheap Trick, Girlschool, The Knack, etc. "...some of the best female fronted pop punk for a long while." Real Gone // "...a rip-snorting quartet of glam/punk/power pop/garage rockers that never met a six-string hook they didn't like." Blurt // '....it's been awhile since I fell in love with a voice but that's what happened here. It reminds me of Chrissie Hynde singing "Stop Your Sobbing" Boston Groupie News // Justine and the Unclean are back ready to Runaway with you on their sophomore release...Heartaches And Hot Problems, a brand new batch of power-pop punk songs injected with a dash of hard rock -- another set of steely-eyed takes on love, loss, and the fuccked-up, weird, and painful ways it ends. Or begins. The Unclean are Boston music heavyweights, including Justine Covault (Malachite, Grand Theft Auto, Swank, Quest For Tuna) as feisty, audacious lead vocalist, guitarist, and songwriter; Janet Egan King (Heidi, Malachite, Swank, Tulips), on powerhouse bass lines & dirty-sweet harmonies; Charles Hansen (Tom Baker & the Snakes, Gymnasium, Rock Bottom, The Handymen) on ferocious lead guitar attack. Jim Janota (Upper Crust, The Bags, Rock Bottom) swings the lumber (dude, are those two-by-fours?) to round out the rock n' roll assault. It's punk. It's power pop. It's paisley rock. It's glam metal. Their songs have it all: anthems, hooks, raw power, big amps, scorching guitars, a massive rhythm section worthy of any arena, and utterly irresistible choruses. Recorded and produced by David Minehan of Boston Rock legends The Neighborhoods at Woolly Mammoth Studios, Boston MA.
