Vamps 'n' Gypsies - "Vamps 'n' Gypsies"

Now this is definitely a name to watch out for. Female-fronted London scuzz-rockers Vamps 'n' Gypsies have come up with a very promising opening shot here which I hope means we'll be hearing a lot more from them in the future. Sounding like Smashed Gladys relocating east of the Atlantic, this self-titled EP consists of three above-average tracks and two absolutely killer ones, the mid-tempo "Running After You" and the awesome lead-off track "Dumped For Jesus" which has the sort of "wooooaaaaahhh-oh" singalong chorus line which more bands should really be doing nowadays. If the album proper's this good then it should be well worth keeping an eye out for.
