Gaza Strippers The music of guitarist Rick Sims’ two previous bands only hints at the sound of his latest outing, Gaza Strippers. The Didjits, which lasted till around 1994, was a Champaign, Illinois, punk quartet that valued velocity and sarcasm just as much as a hefty spliff. The cowpunk jokesters in the Supersuckers (Seattle by way of Arizona) are whiskey-soaked and hell-bent. Sims struck out on his own in the late ‘90s, lending his guitar skills to a solo project by B-52s frontman Fred Schneider before forming the glam-tinged Gaza Strippers with bass player Darren Hooper, guitarist Mike Hodgkiss, and drummer Cory Statler (later replaced by a guy named Mark). The quartet soon recorded a six-song UK EP, Electric Bible, which they also sold at their raucous live shows, including tours with Norwegian punk-pop stalwarts Gluecifer and blues-punk veterans Zen Guerrilla, as well as Sims’ old pals the Supersuckers. The Gaza Strippers’ first official US release was the 1999 long-player Laced Candy, which featured a typically warped power-pop/punk cover of Love and Rockets’ “Yin and Yang the Flower Pot Man.” |
