Girls Against Boys' dual-bass attack and Scott McCloud's wheezy sing-speak vocals (resonant of the Fall's Mark E. Smith) bring about an gumptious, if sometimes noisy, sound that would in all likelihood chafe listeners if it weren't for the Baltimore band's great Fugazi-influenced songs. The band's 1989 debut album Tropical of Scorpio appeared on Adult Swim label, followed by a leap up to the major indie Touch and Go for Genus Venus Luxure No. 1 Baby. The albums that followed -- 1995's Cruise Yourself and 1996's House of GVSB -- charted the growing fortunes of the band, simply their jump to major label Geffen, 1998's Freak*on*ica, was the worst disk of their career. After a drawn-out hiatus, Girls Against Boys returned to the resistance with a contract for Jade Tree and a 2002 full-length, You Can't Fight What You Can't See.
