((Lion Fever)) Band Profile and Upcoming Chicago Concerts - Oh My Rockness

Bass. Drums. Guitar. Power. Portland's Lion Fever features members of former heavy hitters like Lost Kids, Pleasure Forever, The VSS and Starlite Desperation. Jennifer Pearl's defiantly emotive vocals lead Lion Fever's stripped-down and volatile garage thrash, creating a sound that's like Gun Club meets PJ Harvey and Cher. Pearl really wails.

There are noticeable psych and country elements beneath these furious rhythms, making for a more interesting listen than your average "garage" band that simply turns the amps to 11. But overall, Lion Fever is just a dirty rock 'n' roll band that doesn't really like you that much. And for that, you love them. If that's not punk co-dependency, what is?
