The Vibration are an all female quartet who incorporate post punk influences, but don’t mimic other bands. Their sound is theirs alone with a dark slightly seamy underbelly just lurking beneath jangly guitars and well crafted melodies. Their first full length album ( following 2003’s Ear To The Ground EP) is full of the aggression and passion of a band that is hungry to be heard. It's interest lies in many layers of emotion and interplay musically and lyrically. Amarilla was released May 1 but recorded in January of 2005. I don’t know why it was such a long time coming, but it was worth the wait.
