About Gore Gore Girls
Gore Gore Girls are a garage rock band from Detroit, Michigan, formed in 1997. Their music is strong influenced by the guitar based underground movement pioneered by The White Stripes and the DIY lo-fi sounds of the riot grrl movement. The Gore Gore Girls first line-up included Amy Surdu on vocals and guitar, Paula Regalado on bass guitar, and Jeff Klein on drums. Klein left before their first single was released.
The band's name comes from the title of a 1972 B-horror film called The Gore Gore Girls, which is a parody of the term Go Go Girls.
Like fellow Detroit bands The White Stripes and the The Detroit Cobras, the band started out struggling through the local club circuit before being "discovered" by independent record label Get Hip Records in 1998. Their first single "Mama in the Movies" gained favourable airplay on college radio stations in Michigan, before they recorded their first full-length album Strange Girls, which featured Surdu with Deanne Iovan on bass guitar and Deb Agolli on drums and vocals. Agolli was subsequently replaced by Monica Breen and then Cathy Carrell from rock band Inside Out. Bass player Melody Licious joined from Broadzilla, in 2000. Up All Night, released in 2002, received positive press from the Village Voice and Detroit Free Press. Their current touring line-up features Marlene Hammerle on additional guitar, Jen Pirch on bass guitar, and Nikki Styxx on drums, which toured with The Cramps in 2005. Their third album, Get the Gore, recorded at Ghetto Recorders in Detroit, Michigan, is due for release in June, 2005.
