REISSUE OF LONG OUT OF PRINT SOPHOMORE ALBUM + LP PACKAGE COMES WITH A DOUBLE-SIDED INSERT + DL COUPON + FIRST PRESSING LIMITED TO 1500 COPIES WORLDWIDE ON UNITE, MULTIPLY, & CONQUER SPLATTER VINYL // You often hear people talking about how a certain artist saved their life. You also frequently hear people talk about how certain shows can be borderline spiritual experiences. Sure, it might be hyperbole, but any music head knows those experiences are very real. And for Death Valley Girls, the mortal stakes and transcendental power of music was at the core of their mission. The band quite literally began as a haven for vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Bonnie Bloomgarden and guitarist Larry Schemel as they navigated getting clean from hard drugs. It was a kind of rebirth, an outlet for a new way of living. And with that newfound appreciation for life came a thirst for communal celebration. Their shows took on a mystical fervor. They were a pure manifestation of all the great moments of rock n’ roll_the adrenalized swagger of the electric pioneers, the razor edge of those early metal masters, the rough-hewn heft of rst-generation punk_with any hint of nihilism swapped out for an afrmation of life. Death Valley Girls’ sophomore album Glow in the Dark (2016) is a white-hot distillation of their sound and spirit_a jittery and jubilant joyride of barnburner guitar riffage, goosebump-inducing choral hooks, pounding rhythms provided by drummer Laura “The Kid” Kelsey and bassist Alana Amram, and an overarching aura of some secret and subversive power. The band wastes no time detailing their strategies as they crash out of the gate with the title track. Bloomgarden and auxiliary vocalist Jessie Jones issue the song’s call to arms_”unite, multiply, and conquer”_as a rallying cry to likeminded souls. “Once you realize that money, government, and this whole system is a shitty construct that doesn’t work and stands in the way of our true magical innite potential, we start to glow,” says Bloomgarden about Glow in the Dark. “And we can see everyone that believes `cause they glow too!” It’s hard to not feel that magical tingle during the riotous stomp of “Disco,” the old school rattle-and-raze of “Death Valley Boogie,” or the re-and-brimstone proselytizing of “Seis Seis Seis.” While the initial line-up of Death Valley Girls _ featuring the core duo of Bloomeld andSchemel with bassist Rachel Orosco and drummer Patty Schemel _ ruminated on the hellish realities of the modern world on their debut album Street Venom, the Glow in the Dark-era Death Valley Girls reveled in the secret bond between the mists and outcasts who refused to bow
