Metroactive Music | Elastica (843 words)
Elastica's songs use Morse code rhythms and slashing, two-chord tunes, evoking the herky-jerky math-rock that preceded the grunge movement.
The album's opening track, "Mad Dog God Dam," is particularly reminiscent of that era: not only does it evoke Wire's "1-2-X-U," but it also bears an uncanny resemblance to Elastica's hit "Connection," which was attacked by Wire for plagiarism.
ELASTICA RODE into the spotlight in the mid-'90s on the female bandwagon, alongside such bands as the Breeders, Babes in Toyland, Veruca Salt, Lush and L7, but the group disappeared from the spotlight after one too many catfights and high jinks.
