Kill Miss Pretty
Boynton Beach's raunch-punksters Kill Miss Pretty announced Sunday via Twitter that they are giving away their two albums, Permission for Strange and 2006 EP Bite Your Tongue, for free. The trio, which consists of vocalist Alicia, guitarist Russ, and bassist Martin, blend indie rock and electro for a sideshow that is one part carnival, one part sex (mainly on Alicia's part), and one part glam. They were part of the huge Halloween party, Moonfest, and are scheduled to play Saturday at New Times' fashion/art/music soiree Artopia.

Moonfest 2009
Downtown West Palm Beach
Saturday, October 31, 2009

Better Than: Witnessing a scantily clad Tinker Bell getting spanked by Beaker the Muppet.

The Review:

With an estimated attendance of over 40,000, Moonfest has become one of South Florida's largest and rowdiest street parties, second only to Key West's Fantasy Fest in sheer unabashed exhibition and overall bacchanalian revelry. One might think that the costumes (or lack thereof) are the main draw, but event organizers Rodney Mayo and Maurice Costigan go out of their way every year to cull an outstanding array of local musical talent as entertainment.

This year, there were showcases by road-tested bands like Miami's Nothing Rhymes With Orange and funk-rocking West Palm Beach quintet Big Bang Radio on the bill. But audiences were also treated with the return of West Palm Beach's local boys made good, Surfer Blood, who in a matter of six months have gone from scrounging gigs in Lake Worth dive bars to becoming indie rock blog darlings.

First we took in a set from Boynton Beach electro-punk trio Kill Miss Pretty. When we last saw them at Respectable Street's anniversary party, they suffered through a myriad of technical difficulties. But their glam-tastic industrial crunk was perfectly dished out at Moonfest. Lead vocalist Alicia Olink, dressed as a sexy, trashy zebra, wiggling her bikini-bottomed derriere to the beat of kittenish tune "El Gato," was quite the eye candy. Her vocals came across as a Courtney Love, but friskier on this one. Guitarist/programmer Russell Rogers and bassist Martin Davis did a great job backing her up with menacing production work on "Music is Nothing." It reminded us of something off a Rob Zombie soundtrack, perfect full-moon-on-Halloween fare.

Nothing Rhymes With Orange played next. Fresh from a stint of U.K. dates, the four-piece demonstrated more than just a little Anglophilia with its arena-size melodies, sung by lead vocalist Carl Coccaro with rousing, Ian McCulloch-esque pipes. They performed instant new anthems like "Headlines and Deadlines," which we could have sworn was a Verve cover, and ended it with mid-tempo ballad "Classic" with Coccaro crooning over his brother Rich's perfect guitar jangle.

After the evening's best costume contest winner, Mr. Dick in the Box, was announced, the much anticipated set by West Palm Beach's Surfer Blood commenced. The first noticeable thing is that group has expanded to a five-piece, with the addition of percussionist Marcos Marchesani. Although he injected a lot of zest the rest of the troupe's scuzz, when he was bouncing around like a mad man striking the cowbell on "Twin Peaks," we really wondered if perhaps Marchesani was not a member of LMFAO making a cameo. "Swim (To Reach the End)" showcased lead vocalist J.P. Pitts' range, as he reached for a deep Frank Black-style cathartic howl.  During vulnerable set ender "Catholic Pagans," Pitts ran past the tambourine-playing centaur and did a full-on stage dive towards the crowd. It was an entertaining end to a fantastic performance. Now, onward to bona fide rock superstardom for the boys.

The MOST fun you can have on a Monday Night

Kill Miss Pretty

Date/Time:Mon., September 28, 8:00pm

Price: $7

Miss Pretty Had It Coming

By Jamie Laughlin

When Alicia Olink instructs people to look at her privates, they do it. The Kill Miss Pretty frontwoman exudes that magical prowess necessary for successful rock stars, cult leaders, and mythological sirens alike. So when she addresses her hypnotized crowd with “Hey, look at my vag!” and tugs her anime-styled mini, revealing a pair of gold bikini briefs, it’s safe to say the audience is onboard.

The trio of KMP channels this sexual energy through varied bedfellows – early ’90s industrial distortion, gritty synthetic riffs, and dalliances with glam – to produce an evolved poke at modern club rock. Add in LSD-inspired stage outfits and a legion of 3D and online followers, and well, hell. You’ve got all the makings of a revolution.

Take part in the costumed uprising tonight when Kill Miss Pretty plays Propaganda, located at 6 South J Street, in Lake Worth. They’ll have support by TV Kills Kids and headliner, Digital Leather. Check out KMP and Olink’s panties at killmisspretty.com.
