Product Description
From Amazon.com
Heirs to the White Stripes' new-garage throne, the Raveonettes have delivered a debut of enormous spirit and purpose. Only 21 minutes long, it's one of those rare albums that leave one aching for more. By deliberately setting limits (all songs are under three minutes long, are in B minor, feature three or fewer chords, and don't have high hats), the Danish duo--like the Cramps, the Jesus and Mary Chain, and Suicide--give themselves run to go wild within narrow parameters. "Attack of the Ghost Riders" is thrillingly volatile rock & roll, overlaid with the shrieking of tortured machinery. "My Tornado" is a churning plea to a pitiless, glorious lover. Better still is the slow, grim "Bowels of the Beast," which sounds like the Cramps performing Black Sabbath, and the closing "Beat City," in which the sweet harmonies of Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo tumble into a maelstrom of howling guitar. Whip It On is simple but amazingly energetic. --Dominic Wills
Chronique amazon.fr
Quand le garant de l’esprit pop sixties, Richard Gottehrer, producteur des classiques de Blondie ou des Go-Go’s rencontre deux fanatiques du Velvet Underground, de Jesus and Mary Chain ou de SonicYouth, le résultat, option punk-rock minimaliste, est forcément flamboyant. The Whip It On démarre donc avec "Attack of the Ghost Riders", une offensive entre les Cramps et les Shangri-La’s arbitrée par Suicide ("Ghost Rider"). Ce rock torturé respecte le dogme que le duo danois s’est imposé : jouer en si bémol et avec 3 accords des chansons de 3 minutes sans cymbale, ni charleston. Simple et efficace. En une prise et sur 4 pistes, The Raveonnettes a enregistré une musique pour film noir. Du speed garage de "Do You Believe Her" au rockabilly de "Cops On Our Tail", les harmonies combinées de Sharin Foo (basse, chant) et de Sune Rose Wagner (guitare, chant) se noient dans un maelstrom de guitares hurlantes. --Sabrina Silamo

not really a single duff track here,

This review is from: Whip It on (Audio CD)
Wow! What a debut!From the start with "Attack of the Ghost Riders" the sound hits you like a freight train. A cross between the Jesus and the Mary Chain and every punk/pop band you've ever heard and that only half explains the Raveonettes. The use of sirens on "Cops On Our Tail" also mirrors the best of rap songs that do this but the bonus is there is an actual tune on here. Definitely pick this up no matter the price.

This is what indie is all about,
By alexander laurence (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Whip It On (Audio CD)
This is indie and direct. There is some repetition but haven't you heard of serial music or techno? Less is more with The Raveonettes. Plus they look like a real band. They look cooler than 905 of the bands out there. I can't take bands serious when they come out in t-shirt and jeans. This record is a daring experiement. If people don't get it, that's their fault. Every song is hit on this CD.
