“Absolute best in the genre”
Posted in: Gasoline QueenA review has been written on www.metal-temple.com of our performance at Wasteland in Gävle March 20 this year. It was a while ago, but it summarizes quite well the praise we have received for the last gigs this spring and summer. The text below is an excerpt from the review and you find the whole review at this address: http://www.metal-temple.com/report.asp?id=427. A big thank you to Erika who wrote this review.
“A little later, just after enough beers to be ready to rock GASOLINE QUEEN hit the stage and there’s one thing I can’t get about this style. Bands with some originality and real talent seem to be scary for the business. It is really a sacrilege that bands like CRAZY LIXX and CRASH DIET are pushed in the media as hard as they can and GASOLINE QUEEN have to struggle against the stream. Now this type of music isn’t my all-time favorite but GASOLINE QUEEN really appeal to me and I dare to say they’re one of the absolute best in the genre. They have it all, good songs, a great attitude and are extremely fun to watch. Even if the stage at Wasteland didn’t allow much movement GASOLINE QUEEN did all to amuse and they really managed to get that stage boiling. Sure, to reach the crowd and sort of hang out is easy but to do some real movements that both looks cool and brought even more life to the performance is something rarely seen at Wasteland. They are an unusual package in the genre and I can’t think of anything I want to change, all to do now is just to watch them grow. A lot of the things around this type of bands belong to image and attitude but GASOLINE QUEEN has a lot more, they are over all high-class. Over all, it was a really successful release party but next time they need to hire someone to deal with the merchandise. Most people are shopping after the gig and then it’s not such a bright idea to have the T-shirts neatly packed behind a pile of equipment in the dressing room.”
