简介

by Stewart Mason & Tim Sendra Probably the biggest Ramones fans in Wales, if not the entire United Kingdom, Helen Love mixed da bruddahs with a little B-52s and a whole lot of Pooh Sticks-style indie irony to create a sunny and unapologetically disposable sound. Formed in Cardiff, Wales, in 1992, Helen Love (like Blondie, theyre a group) consists of the pseudonymous Helen Love on bratty shout-along vocals, Sheena — who is, of course, a punk rocker — on buzzsaw guitars, and Roxy and Mark on dueling Casio keyboards, which also double as drum machines. Their low-tech, high-energy sound landed them on the estimable U.K. indie Damaged Goods, where they released the statement of purpose Formula One Racing Girls in 1993. (This single, it should be noted, coined the term girl power a good three years prior to the Spice Girls media blitz.) The unabashedly adulatory Joey Ramoney followed in 1994, itself followed by Punk Boy, a giant step melodically and lyrically that Northern Irelands Ash later covered on their Crazed and Confused EP. Helen Loves next step was the 10 EP Summer Pop,Punk Pop, a five-song celebration of Summer Pop Radio and related activities thats like a 90s U.K. indie answer to the Beach Boys Summer Days (And Summer Nights). 1995s Bubblegum single introduced a new trick into the groups repertoire by unashamedly nicking the chorus from the Specials Much Too Young for the flip, Lets Go. The three-song Ahead of the Race CD EP introduced the group to the digital era with a slightly mellower sound, but 1996s Beat Him Up was punkier than anything since the groups debut. The groups final release for Damaged Goods, the four-song We Love You EP, was probably their strongest work, but a dispute with the label led to the group signing with the slightly larger Che imprint in 1997. The resulting EPs Does Your Heart Go Boom and Long Live the UK Music Scene were made without Sheena, but she was back on board for the groups first full-length album, 2000s Love and Glitter, Hot Days and Muzik. The album was reissued a year later by Damaged Goods with extra tracks added. Apart from a holiday single (a cover of Joey Ramone and Debbie Harrys Merry Christmas I Dont Want to Fight), the group was quiet until the release of the Bubblegum Killers EP in 2005. (更多)
