Back in the mid-'80s, Hoboken, New Jersey's Gutbank preceded and predicted such smart, powerful female punks as Hole, Babes In Toyland, and P.J. Harvey, not to mention the riot grrrls. Now, the original trio of Alice Genese, Karyn Kuhl, and Tia Sprocket are back with a new name, Sexpod, a slightly more metallic sound, and a killer debut called Goddess Blues. "Patti Smith meets Soundgarden" is the phrase that's repeated throughout their press kit, and for once, the disc lives up to the hype. Any one of these gals could kick Alanis Morrisette's butt with one hand tied behind her back. Jim Derogatis

5 out of 5 stars Painfully Overlooked........2004-04-18

I just ordered this album for about 2 bux and after hearing it i wouldve gladly payed a higher price for this lost treasure. It really is a great album,and shouldve got more recognition than it did. There are few albums that i can actually listen to all the way through and this is one of them! Lot of emotion put into the music here....Very very soulful metal. The guitar work here is awesome to say the least....alot of scorching acid-solo's that make you wonder why Karyn Kuhl isnt at least considered one of the greatest female guitarists today. Just listen to the epic album-closer "waterfall" I mean wow....if Hendrix were still with us today he'd be proud.Karyn is also an amazing vocalist, shes very hypnotic and powerful.The whole band is great! This is a must....pick it up! You wont be sorry!

5 out of 5 stars The greatest band you've never heard of!!!..........2002-03-19

Sexpod never really did achieve any recognition for being one of the best female rock bands of all time, mainly I think because of the short lifespan of the band, and the reclusive personality of the lead singer, songwritter, and guitarist Karyn Kuhl.

From the very first power chords of "Goddess Blues" (the first track), it's apparant that something incredibly amazing is happening here. I've listened to many female guitarists in my time, and none can compare to Karyn's talent or insight. Her playng brings forth images of almost every great rock guitarist I've ever heard...(Hendrix, Clapton, Paige, ect.)... and adds her own fresh smoothe touch to it that makes it unbelievably addictive to listen to. Her talent is not limited to playng power chords either, she can and does play the most phenomenal solos. She can do it all with a guitar, and do it all really well.

Her voice is nothing short of hypnotic. I think what mainly draws me to it is that there's the slightlest hint of unintended desperation in every line. She never wails or screams...rather reflects a quite confidence, intertwined with a hint of despair.

Karyn still plays around New York City with her new "Band of Whores". I got the chance to meet her a couple of times over the past year, and she's really a great person as well as an incredible talent.

If you love ROCK as much as I do(especially girl bands). You owe it to yourself to buy this!!!!!

PLAY IT LOUD!!!!!!!!!

4 out of 5 stars Best female rock group I've ever heard.......1999-04-25

I hear the title track on the radio a couple of years ago and decided to buy the album. I was not disappointed! These girls know how to rock. Nothing sappy or whiny; just straight up metal with awesome bass. Really not a bad song on the whole album.
