They've got a fuzz box and they're gonna use it! And they're back with the original line-up! Back in the day, four brilliant Birmingham birds captured the zeitgeist of the moment, all big hair, big beats and big tunes. Crossing The Slits with The Bangles and The Go-Gos (and even getting included on NME's now-legendary C-86 cassette sampler) they were unselfconscious theatrical glam-punk and, almost unheard of now, crossed over heavily in to the indie scene. And, of course, lead singer Vix never really went away. Collaborations with Ginger (Wildhearts), Conny Bloom (Hanoi Rocks) and the self-named ‘ViX n The Kix' - " ... a retro lashing of slick Fifties glamour and flirty burlesque". Love Is The Slug, Pink Sunshine, Self and International Rescue ... call them.
