Illustration courtesy of Ava O’Connor.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDear Heavenly Father, I pray that God sends her shitty men until she chooses me. Amen!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n That\u2019s the universal prayer of Girlfriend From Hell, Savannah Georgia\u2019s beloved, bratty, punk trio. Made up of Bassist Nat Durham, guitarist Jaida Maceyko, and drummer Alix Lemiere, the Sav locals are kicking off the month of April with their killer debut EP, Get a Grip. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Girlfriend from Hell incorporates tongue-in-cheek lyrics similar to modern girl bands such as Dazey and the Scouts and Mommy Long Legs with the defiant outrage of classic riot grrrl groups like Bikini Kill. The songs showcase a mix of meaningful activism and dark humor, drenched in the band\u2019s bombastic and fierce personality throughout the record as a whole. Durham\u2019s verdriven bass lines, Maceyko\u2019s deep, crunchy guitar riffs and Lemiere\u2019s energetic drum rhythms create a classic, hardcore punk tone, while Durham\u2019s shrieking vocals call a certain audience out on their bullshit (No Respect<\/em>) as well as tell stories of drunk decisions (Shots<\/em>) and forgotten birthday presents (Kitty Flask<\/em>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
