London Girl was a pop-punk band from Houston, TX that melded sassy 1960’s rock’n’roll girl power, Riot Grrrl tinges, new wave undercurrents, and DIY punk clatter, featuring members of future bands like The Gigi’s, Slurpees, Magnetic Four, Biscuit Bombs, Zipperneck, Vivian Pikkles, No Love Less, and more.

The soundtrack to all those times when we know it’s a bad idea, but we go for it anyway.
“Jealous Creatures are quite the sight to see, and their live show is pretty energetic. Their lead singer has the pipes of Chrissie Hynde, with the swagger of Patty Smyth, which comes across loud and clear on their release, ‘Bazooka.’” – David Garrick – Free Press Houston
“I caught a strong whiff of the Pretenders while watching Jealous Creatures, but that could just be because they happen to have a female lead singer. Really, I think it’s because of the tough, tuneful songs that really go somewhere, and know exactly where that is. They passed the test I give every band I see for the first time at the HPMA showcase with flying colors: Jealous Creatures made me want to go see them again immediately.” – Chris Gray – Houston Press – Rocks Off
“With “Bazooka,” Jealous Creatures may have created their own specialized musical genre. This genre could and should be called Sedimentary Rock. It’s characterized by intricately crafted, multi-layered songs with dual meanings and emotions formed over time by just the right experiences, influences and ingredients gathered from all the right places, eras and genres into an interconnected whole. You could scrutinize each of these layers in detail to get a better look at the baggage they brought to the band or you could avoid the blow to the head and just grab a copy of “Bazooka.” It will give you an ample glimpse of all you really need to know about Jealous Creatures for now.” – Bob Langham – Examiner.com
“I remember when Babyface reviewed Jealous Creatures last time he said how impressed he was, and based on what I’ve just heard of things I’m inclined to agree with him. This is an album which moves through different moods as it progresses, roving from in your face and powerful at one moment through to laid back and soothing at another, there’s twists, turns and surprises around every corner, surely presenting us with an album that is going to be returned to time and time again.” – Dave Nicholls – Loud Stuff
“Frank, freed of genre burdens, and shooting from the hip, Jealous Creatures are the tonic for the times when pop has become pitch-corrected and laden with false comforts.” – David Ensminger – PopMatters
“…they write songs that can sit up on the shelf next to some of the biggest and best classic rock songwriters…” – Jason Smith – Space City Rock
