REVIEW BY BABES IN BOYLAND [France]: Phallus Über Alles : Iron Woman (Fatal Recordings). "This band isn’t made to please the machos’… That was my first tought when I’ve first lent an ear to their debut album. I did really enjoy listening to their electro punk distorsions and shouts, it was exactly what I had been looking for in what some people call the Digital Hardcore Industry. Don’t get me wrong though because this gem belongs to Fatal Recordings. Diesel gives us her anger and sharp tongued lyrics served all raw in the plate, and with the plate on to your face!!! Phallus Über Alles denounces a patriarcal society (as their name which means Phallus Before Everything Else lets us understand). They turn a critical eye at men but also at women who get involved in spreading this mis-conception. In the ‘brawl at the boys and girls club’, everyone is pointed at and the rage that comes out of the track won’t keep you still. ‘The future homemakers of America » presents us a rant against America’s narrow minded values. The spoken words are abrasive and make me feel that some kind of resistance isn’t over in the States. On the top of that, the drum and bass beat gets hammered into your brain without even noticing it. So yes if you like punk fury mixed with electro beats (which I personnaly do) from drum and bass to digital hardcore, Phallus Über Alles is the band that you need to listen to immediatly.
