Get Skintight

by The Donnas

  • Record/Vinyl

    Blessed with a formidable front woman in Brett Anderson, a guitar heroine in Allison Robertson, and a pummeling rhythm section in bassist Maya Ford and drummer Torry Castellano, The Donnas were one of the greatest punk bands of the '90s, male or female, bringing a uniquely hedonistic yet feminist viewpoint to the genre. Now, with the full cooperation of the band, Real Gone Music is reissuing their first four albums on vinyl. 1999’s Get Skintight was The Donnas’ third album in three years, but, with such bangers as “I Didn’t Like You Anyway,” “You Don’t Wanna Call,” and “Hyperactive,” the girls show no sign of songwriting fatigue. Production by Steve and Jeff McDonald of Redd Kross adds a little bite to the songs, but they’re already showing their teeth—the wannabe boyfriend putdowns are as ferocious (“A boston baked bean is the size of your head/I heard you even wet your bed”) as they are funny, and the libidos are, um, lively. There’s also a Mötley Crüe cover (“Too Fast for Love”), but The Donnas’ songs are better. Remastered for vinyl by Mike Milchner at Sonic Vision, and reissued complete with a 4-page insert featuring the original insert plus band commentary.

    A1. Skintight
    A2. Hyperactive
    A3. You Don’t Wanna Call
