I love this band, their attitude and their music.
Their live performances are just crazy fun.

Review - The SoapGirls - Lewes Con Club - 30th June 2019
South Africa’s
SoapGirls are here to stay. Their style of all inclusive punk rock is exciting
to listen to. The sisters Mie and Mille are clever, intelligent and fun to be
around. They absolutely adore their fans and spend as much time as possible
interacting with them online and at gigs.
Let’s get
the Elephant in the Room out of the way….they play topless, in fairness so does
the drummer, but no one talks about Sam (which is a shame as he’s bloody good).
But don’t let their painted bodies take away from the fact that they deliver,
they are not all hype.
The
SoapGirls will tell you there’s more offensive things in the World than a
nipple. Poverty, homelessness, abuse, wars – absolutely correct.
Don’t be
afraid of these ladies. They can sing and boy can they play. They are genuinely
talented and seeing them live is an absolute pleasure.
The Lewes
Con Club is an excellent venue and The SoapGirls played a powerful set which
lasted about 90 minutes. It was a hot and sweaty night and the crowd were well
into the band. People were dancing singing along and generally having a great
time. That’s how good the band are.
They played
fan favourites Jonny Rotten (about a serial killer NOT the Sex Pistol), a
favourite of mine, Party in Hell, and what is turning into an absolute anthem
Society’s Reject. Also a few songs off the soon to be released new album were
in the set. White Flag is excellent and I love My development
Mie is
always smiling on stage, she loves what she does and it shows. Mille is so energetic,
she was definitely born a rocker.
Towards the
end they played Bad Bitch, this is a song where they traditionally get a few
fans on stage for a bit of audience participation. Tonight was no exception,
but no one expected one of the audience to think ‘fuck it’. He stripped off
stark bollock naked and spent the rest of the set dancing around naked on stage,
all in good fun. The rest of the audience loved it…Sam the Manager may have had
to keep her eye on him, but it was all done in fun and she needn’t have worried
So there you
have it, an amazing night out. I cant wait to see them again. If you get the chance then make sure you do,
you wont regret it. They are not backed by any big time promoters. They are
doing this the hard way, week in week out, on their own. Support them if you
can and do yourself a favour buy their albums Calls for Rebellion and Society’s
Rejects.
The new
album Elephant in the Room is due out in the next 2 weeks. This band get better
and better, I’m sure the new album will be the best one yet.
