#188: THE PEECHEESÂ - âcup of gloryâ
THE PEECHESS played in vienna some (easter?) weekend in the late 90s. xfunkydiscokidsx organized the show. i remember that i had to go to see my family and missed it. itâs a pitty i never got to see them play live. somehow THE PEECHES werenât a band, that i was listening to a whole lot in the 90s, but retrospectively seen, they were damn good. this punk/riot grrrl vibe just gets to you.
âcup of gloryâ was released in 1994 and seems to be the first record of THE PEECHEES. it came out on kill rock stars and the cover is just amazing. just take a look at the illustrations (tennis, track & field on the front cover, basketball, skiing on the backcover), everything is lovely. on the inside of the gatefold cover youâll find pictures of the four band members, lyrics and thank you notes.Â
i really like âcheap funâ, but âgreaseâ and âfine watchâ are worth listening to too. on side b thereâs another song, but it ends after only a few seconds. it actually sounds like a misproduction, but since discogs points it out too, i guess itâs intended.
