City Of The Weak - Rockwired Radio Profiles #673

Readers may not share in our nervousness and apprehension in what a TRUMP presidency has to offer and that's fine but this is where we're at as a publication right now. The number of things that have us excited these days a minimal outside of the release of ROGUE ONE - A STAR WARS STORY and new music from one of our favorite bands in the past couple of years - CITY OF THE WEAK. Fronted by the enigmatic and most-definitely-photogenic front woman STEF WITH AN F, CITY OF THE WEAK is a band that has stood out form the crowd with their not-so-subtle approach to a brand of pop rock that one finds themselves banging their heads.  The band set the public up for some pleasant surprises with the release of their 2014 EP DISCLOSURE which had yielded the singles WHITE FIRE ALARM, JUST ANOTHER EULOGY and THE BLAME GAME (all packaged lovingly with some top notch music videos proudly displaying Ms. WITH AN F's undeniable charisma and star power). In the spring of 2017 STEF and the boys will be releasing their first ever LP. Preceding this release is another anthemic stomper CENSOR THIS with a music video that winks  at the electoral process  that is coming into question. Seriously, we're not trying to make this political. 2017 is going to be huge year for CITY OF THE WEAK. All you've got to do is give CENSOR THIS a listen and realize this band has the pop smarts to make rock n roll great again.

Rockwired Radio Profiles #550 - City of the Weak

With  crazy eye makeup that could put CHRISSIE HYNDE to shame and the biggest , wildest hair this side of DALE BOZZIO and the fiercest battle cry in rock since PAT BENATAR's hey day - why the hell didn't we get  this band from the beginning?  Yes, CITY OF THE WEAK is  our idea of a dream band  complete with a mega-charismatic front woman and  a band that knows their shit from whatever the latest brand of shinola is on the market.  The band made their  debut in 2013 with the release of their EP  WHITE FIRE ALARM  and it's propulsive title track.  In 2014 they released their follow up DISCLOSURE and now the band is getting some serious attention for their latest single and video for JUST ANOTHER EULOGY.  We don't have enough fingers to count the times that we have lost  some of our  more rocking dames in the name of dance music or a softer more consensus sound and it is our genuine wish that STEF WITH AN F and the boys will stay the course and not go gently into that good night.
