When the 1970s punk scene was washed away by the undertow of '80s new
wave, few bands surfed the transition as well as the Go-Go's. These Valley
grrrls dressed up their punk heritage with a sense of glamour so that their
music was at once ballsy and fanciful. The peppery singles "We Got the Beat"
and "Our Lips Are Sealed" were their debut's chart climbers and glossiest
tracks. The rest of the album has a tougher crust. For example, the jittery
"Can't Stop the World" would make the Ramones proud. And take a look at
the lyrical content of "This Town": "Change the lines that were said before /
We're all dreamers--we're all whores / Discarded stars / Like worn out cars /
Litter the streets of this town." Hole's single "Celebrity Skin" is a '90s rendition
of the same theme: "When I wake up with my makeup / Have you ever felt so
used up as this? / It's all so sugarless / Hooker / Waitress / Model / Actress /
Oh, just go nameless." Just as Courtney Love has made a career out of
publicly displaying her glam-trash lifestyle, the Go-Go's song about the self-
eroding lifestyles of Hollywood revealed that they, too, were more hard living
than hard candy. --Beth Bessmer
