God's Girlfriend is the solo project of noted drag queen Birgit Brat. This debut
album, while technically the first God's Girlfriend release, is actually a
collection of material from 1991-97. As a result at times the album seems very
disjointed and non-cohesive because all of the material doesn't necessarily
flow well together. Musically the album goes all over the place from guitar
centered pieces, to distorted electronics and even a noise collage or two.
There is even a cover of the classic Led Zeppelin tune, 'When the Levee
Breaks'. Perhaps the most impressive element of this album is the vocal work of
Brigit. (S)he has an extremely dynamic range when she allows her throatwork to
remain unmodified. Of course she also uses a great deal of various vocal
treatments throughout the album making her vocals even more diverse. Overall
a very intriguing album by an extremely odd persona. It should cater to fans
of very dirty feedback Industrial sound while still retaining enough appeal
for guitar crossover junkies as well.
