Secret Rites (1971)

Blending gritty street anthems and dark, visceral storytelling, the five-track release captures the dangerous allure of New York City’s underbelly—hot summer nights, leather and sweat, addiction, lust, and self-destruction. Standout tracks like the title song “East Village Women,” the pounding “I’m Addicted to Everything,” and the brutal “TNUC” deliver a potent mix of punk energy, sleazy rock swagger, and menacing intensity that feels both nostalgic for the Bowery’s lost era and timelessly rebellious. Released via Rotten Xore Records, "East Village Women" is essential listening for fans of raw, no-holds-barred underground rock that bleeds authenticity and attitude.
