Nation
(2013, Santeria Records) Italia.
New album by Edible Woman, with a better sound and still recorded live.
My favorite song on that album is Cancer mainly for its terrific part à la Future Of The Left at 1:58.
I love the differents bass/synthesizers riffs in Safe And Sound.
The melodies in Call Of The West / Black Merda remain in head.
I love the Man Man’s touch in A Hate Supreme.
Some good songs.

Everywhere At Once
(2010, Sleeping Star Records) Italia.
With that album, Edible Woman takes a different direction from its two first album, with a much more instrumental music. They add too synthesizers parts.
The result reached a good level but I didn’t really feel touched by these ambiences, like in A Small Space Odissey (my favorite in that serie).
I still love a couple exceptions, like Goran Sarajlic and its beautiful synthesizer riffs which makes me think of Clara Clara’s music (again haha).
Then, and the song’s title will give you a clue on why I loved it, Hi, This Is Hardcore Finale at 2:24 is a killer.
Some good songs.

The Scum Album
(2007, Psychotica Records) Italia.
Here is Edible Woman’s second album and their music go in many directions at the same time.
The album starts with the terrific Nothing. You’ll find amazing vocal parts, I love the bass line and the drum parts are really impressive, bravo ! (Amazing at 1:24)
I like the energy in Mystic River and in Mouseman.
The singing and ambiences in Honeyed Words are beautiful.
In a different genre, there is that song, When Stars, with piano parts, which makes me think of Clara Clara’s music.
Some good songs !

Spare Me / Calf
(2004, Psychotica Records) Italia.
It is their first album, and it sounds to me like the best noise rock album I’ve ever heard, after Shellac, of course.
What a slap !
Only songs with interesting riffs, a lot of energy and a great sound which enlight all that.
It sounds kind of a crossing between Gentle Veincut music, and singing à la The Jesus Lizard.
The part at 2:10 in Five Minutes Later is terrific.
Some more pure energy in The Scapegoat (Amazing at 1:40).
The vocal performance in Into Trouble is troubling haha and the guitar’s dissonants riffs are perfect.
The drum parts in Your Slower Speed are impressive.
The album ends with my favorite song in their discography : Hey… Wait For Me where I love the couple bass/guitar and that crazy energy.
I could continue that list, all the songs are killers.
A Must-Have-Or-You-Have-Nothing.
