STARCRAWLER – ” She Gets Around “

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:

Starcrawler have shared a brand new track. Our favourite Los Angeles band, Capturing front-person Arrow de Wilde’s manic live performance, “She Gets Around” was produced and mixed by Nick Launay (Nick Cave, David Byrne, Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and was the first of many times to come that guitarist Henri Cash, drummer Austin Smith and bassist Tim Franco have had a chance to really spend time in a studio and aim to make a record vs simply document a live moment. “She Gets Around” hints at 90s alt-rock bands such as The Breeders and Nirvana, while showcasing the strange, one-of-a-kind spirit and ferocity that is Starcrawler.

The first taster of their forthcoming second album, ‘She Gets Around’ comes ahead of summer tour dates alongside the likes of The Distillers, Beck and Cage The Elephant.

‘She Gets Around’ is the latest single from Starcrawler, out now on Rough Trade Records.

The first thing mentioned when discussing Starcrawler is the band’s live show. Their music is fierce, their records explosive – but their outrageous live shows define them. The drama, the surprise, the danger, the command. From singer Arrow de Wilde’s physical abandon to Henri Cash’s slash ‘n’ burn guitar antics, the LA outfit is a group you need to see in action to fully appreciate. Ozzy Osbourne fiend de Wilde takes her voice to all kinds of places; she’s a mesmerizing front person whose vocal attack drags you deeper into Starcrawler’s songs.

Starcrawler’s “Chicken Woman” an exclusive live performance for Vevo DSCVR, the channel for the best in new music.

“Chicken Woman” is a track from their new self-titled album, produced by Ryan Adams (who has said listening to the band is like “being hit by four trains at once.”) Kinda glam, kinda punk, they’ve perfected a way of imploding and exploding at the same time. With a sense of humor. for a glimpse of their don’t-care attitude. For a glimpse of their don’t-care attitude, check their “I Love LA” video, which finds them rocking the hell out of a Silver Lake donut shop. And share “Chicken Woman” with a friend. The buzz around Starcrawler is getting louder by the minute.
