Starcrawler are a ferocious punk band from Los Angeles, fuelled variously by rage and unknown dark forces. Lead Vocalist Arrow De Wilde is a creature stirs and a bedraggled waif with tangled hair hanging over her paint-smeared face, dressed in a tattered and bloodstained white dress She half staggers, half walks , looking slightly bewildered. Then, she grabs the microphone and begins to snarl, roar, arch her back and generally contort and writhe her way through Stooges-esque garage punk rock.
Arrow de Wilde leaves all the talking to the guitarist Henri Cash, an energetic player with a certain New York Dolls flamboyance and Heartbreakers esque nihilism. Arrow drops to the floor in a protective crouch, Sometimes she collapses, spreadeagled, onto the stage.
But the performer Arrow de Wilde really embodies is Iggy Pop: She gurns, she writhes, she gyrates, Another touchstone may well be Courtney Love, but Courtney Love having a really, really bad day. Starcrawler play killer punk rock and while Arrow is an extremely charismatic frontwoman, what she’s goes beyond is a little girl lost performance:
