All Points West | The Virgins came to conquer & that's no gossip
If you're a fan of Gossip Girl, then you know The Virgins - the NYC band that was fortunate enough not to have just one song featured in the mega-hit TV show, but all 5 songs on their first EP. Since then, they've released a self-titled first full release, and I've been listening to it for a couple months, quite honestly not completely sold on what was coming out of my JBL's.
Well, okay, so I found a cure to that - see The Virgins live. Yup, that'll do it. Today, after hearing them absolutely kick the crap out of their set, I got it. Maybe the disc doesn't do them justice, but live I was able to get the sarcasm of their lyrics as well as the lushness of all the different influences that can be heard in their songs. From the Bee-Gee's to The Clash, one can hear a collection of influences in every tune - Donald even reminds one of a young Mick Jones. With live shows like the one they just played, I have a feeling The Virgins, Donald, Wade, Erik & Nick, are going to be converting fans for a long time yet.
