American South, heat, humidity, drag queens and punk, jazz and burlesque, new wave and no wave. Material Girls is a quintet from New York in the early 1980s. Their sound refers to the sound of New York's no wave and bands like James Chance, the Contorsions, Lounge Lizards, Del Byzanteens and Teenage Jesus. Playing wild and sensual, full of sonic dirt, aggressive, dark but charming and engaging. Post-punk with a saxophone, with strong artistic pretensions.
