One Bitchy Holiday

The Bitches have posted yet another song up on our myspace page. It is called Fly Away and it's just the thing to cheer you up this Thanksgiving when your uncle is drunk and yelling at your sister. Or when your mom burns the turkey and your dad announces that he is gay. Fly Away!
Enjoy the grub, kids, this is the end of excess!...love, rhea and champ

MAGICK SHOWS and PERFORMANCES

“Dub offered the perfect score to the world’s deepening post-colonial dusk. Started, so legend goes, by Kingston's King Tubby in his studio on 18 Drumille Avenue, dub is basically this: a song sunk into the cavernous depths of a mixing board, stripped of its secure pop substances, and returned to the world as an electrified monster or vampire. (It's no accident that vampires appear on the covers of numerous dub LPs.) With dub, what was once flesh and bone is transformed into vague melodies that suddenly appear and vanish, moans that rise and recede, and bass lines that move through the echo-haze like phantoms in a haunted house. Dub is the "ghost dimension" of the real pop song; there is no body in dub, just a flickering afterimage of what was once a body.” (Charles Mudede)
