First blog EVER!

We played our first gig under Youves at the Rainbow Warehouse in Birmingham, here is a review of the gig from The Fly Magazine:

Youves,
Scarlet Harlots
Rainbow Warehouse, Birmingham
31/01/09

"...Luckily for Youves, their punk-house is sturdy and pulsing enough to keep the party going long after the Harlots have raised the roof. Yes, they are guilty of concentrating on groove over hooks a little too often but the propulsion of their Gang Of Four attacking The Rapture with a rusty breadknife-like guitar, awkward disco and lashings of cow bell is nigh on hypnotising.
It’s a feast of pleasure and pain leaving the listener with pangs of anxiety when the music stops like some kind of jibbering 4/4 addict. ‘On Probation’ is a slab of fight or flight heebie-jeebies while it is probably only legal to actually listen to ‘Wolfgang Bang’ in licensed record shops in Amsterdam. It’s a massive, lubed-up ear dildo of a song and it nearly makes The Fly climax tonight, bringing a whole new meaning to the term; ‘banging tune’...

here are some pictures from the show!
