Review by Anna Maria Stjärnell
Remember riot grrl? I’m sure Suran Song does. Her bands music recalls the midnineties heyday of that movement with politically charged lyrics and staccato lashings of bass.
Any album that opens with a Fugazi song and closes with a wildly mutated verison of Bowie’s Star is bound to be special.
Suran Song in Stag has enough energy to power a nuclear plant and “Pure Agtiator” proves theay are a marvellous band. Long may they riot.
