The album has a simmering anxiety throughout, a kind of vertigo, a taste of what the band was actually experiencing at the time. Released in 1998, on House of GVSB, Girls Against Boys hit their stride. \"Super-Fire\" leads off the album with more of a swagger than a bang. Follow that up with songs like \"Click Click,\" \"Zodiac Love Team,\" and \"Disco Six Six Six,\" among others, and you've got the recipe for love, destiny, and straight up gin. No going awry with a song like \"Crash 17 (X-Rated Car).\" All together they play \"TheKindaMzkYouLike.\" In 1998, Girls Against Boys left the Touch and Go stable for a run with major label and later with Jade Tree Records (2002). In recent years, apart from select short tours and shows in Europe, Girls Against Boys has remained on official hiatus. House of GVSB remains probably their most favorite album.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb\u003eLP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eReleased \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e11\/10\/2023\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTOU-377\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e036172107711\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGirls Against Boys\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eTouch \u0026amp; Go Records\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGenre \/ \u003cb\u003ePop \/ Rock\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40843587551293,"sku":"POP-G-036172107711","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/4248470-3041656.jpg?v=1699282941"},{"product_id":"girls-against-boys-cruise-yourself-remastered-suspended-gold-vinyl","title":"Girls Against Boys - Cruise Yourself (Remastered) [Suspended Gold Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally released in 1994, GVSB's second full-length release for Touch and Go Records, Cruise Yourself, is characterized by catch vocal lines wrapped in a sonic double-bass low end.

Akin more to the leering, grinding rock of Brits like the Fall than to the hardcore D. C. scene that spawned it, GVSB dispenses its lurid night music with a gusto surpassing even the band's previous set, Venus Luxure No. 17 Baby.\" - Billboard, 1994  \"A mutated product of Washington, DC, uni-punk, willingly exiled for New York suffer-tude, GVSB crosses Ministry's love of rhythmic noise, the Fall's meditation\/ rants and Cop Shoot Cop's self mocking melodrama without pledging allegiance to any of their respective camps. Cherubic Bukowskis all, they embrace concepts that might seem contradictory or gimmicky to others with an unexploitative directness echoing their own telegraphic sexuality.\" - CMJ New Music Monthly, 1994\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat \/ \u003cb\u003eLP\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReleased \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cb\u003e01\/30\/2026\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue \/ \u003cstrong\u003eTG-434LP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarcode \/ \u003cstrong\u003e036172113415\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist \/ \u003cstrong\u003eGirls Against Boys\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLabel \/ \u003cstrong\u003eTouch and Go Records\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenre \/ \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cb\u003ePop \/ Rock\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secretly Canadian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42946473689149,"sku":"POP-G-036172113415","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1487\/4550\/files\/TG434_380px.jpg?v=1769304302"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.plaidroomrecords.com\/collections\/artist-girls-against-boys.oembed","provider":"Plaid Room Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
