{"product_id":"elastica-1","title":"Elastica","description":"Elastica: Justine Frischmann, Donna Matthews (vocals, guitar); Annie Holland (bass); Justin Welch (drums).\u003cbr\u003eAdditional personnel: Dan Abnormal (keyboards).\u003cbr\u003eThe pop viciousness exuding from Elastica's pores far surpasses any qualities thus far exhibited in Britain's \"new glam\" movement. One time Suede member (pre-\"London\" era) Justine Frischmann and Donna Matthews weave together assorted guitar and vocal textures, recalling various levels of pop genius in a disdainful, Kinks-esque tone.\u003cbr\u003eFrischmann's dry lyrics are deliciously biting. Her sarcastic take on stardom (\"if I can't be a star I won't get out of bed\"), groupies (\"Drivel head knows all the stars\/Loves to suck their shining guitars\"), and impotence (\"no need to whine boy\") are all icily casual. Musically, Elastica is a pop lover's dream. Combining a Buzzcocks-tight rhythm section with enviable guitar delirium, Elastica's grip on pop sensibility is dead-center.\u003cbr\u003eWhat sets the band apart from their peers is their unstoppable wit. Already stars in their native England, Elastica have gotten it all but have also maintained a fabulously jaded perspective in regards to their desires--as Frischmann herself points out in \"Waking Up,\" all she needs is \"a guitar and a lover who pays me.\" What could possibly be more gratifying. All hail Elastica.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45732816879903,"sku":"883870091428","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/4377cddb587e9d6a129e7dbe1f82b283.jpg?v=1777707481","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/elastica-1","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
