Review: The return of Peaches. A prelude to her forthcoming album 'Impeach My Bush'. Peaches is a phenomena; the self-made, self-produced, do-it-yourself leader of the electro punk movement and mistress of the original dirty lyrical classic (check 'Fu*k The Pain Away' and 'Shake Yer Dix' for confirmation). Unique with her minimal pumping beats and loved by true innovators as diverse as Deborah Harry, Iggy Pop, Bjork, Josh Homme, Lil Kim, Marilyn Manson, Kelis, 2 Many DJs, M.I.A. and LCD Soundsystem not to mention the entire fashion and art world. Her live shows are legendary - a one-woman Kiss concert that has left the pop world in awe. Well, she hasn't cleaned up her act with her new release, 'Impeach My Bush', you'll be heartened to hear. A massive record, as ambitious as ever - it's pure Peaches. Recorded at Jeff Porcaro's (the drummer from Toto, no less) old self-built studio in Laurel Canyon, LA, the guests who dropped by to party and play on the record include Joan Jett (who features on vocals and guitar on the raw rock of 'You Love It'), Josh Homme and Feist (who both appear on 'Give 'Er'). Also using the facilities were Darlin' Dave Catching and Brian "Big Hands" O'Conner (Eagles Of Death Metal), who both appear on 'You Love It'. In addition, Samantha Maloney (Hole, Courtney Love band, Motley Crue, Eagles Of Death Metal) lent her live drumming for some album tracks ('Give 'Er', 'Do Ya', 'You Love It').
