Princess of Mars – Demo
I know it's the intention of this blog to delve into past releases/material, but when you learn who is playing in this relatively new band you'll understand why a post was deemed necessary. Princess of Mars features some mighty fine personnel from two amazing bands that demand your attention - we're talkin' the guitar prowess...
Räuberhöhle (Berlin, Germany)
Räuberhöhle sent in her 2000 CD-R release 'Knallerbsen und Sprengkörper' for consideration for a compilation I put out years ago. The demo featured four tracks of what would probably best be described as 'riot beats', in a style not dissimilar to Julie Ruin and Le Tigre. Armed with various Casios, kids toys that go beep...
Redsands (Sydney, Australia)

Etta James & Sugar Pie DeSanto – In The Basement
There is only one possible song that could kick things off here at Revenge Radio - the irresistible 'In the Basement' by Etta James & Sugar Pie DeSanto. This was the 'signature track' for the last year of my radio show, and is the stock standard opener for most mix CDs that I've thrust upon...
