Fatherf -- -er (2003)

EW's GRADE
B+

Details Release Date: Sep 23, 2003; Lead Performance: Peaches

Raunchy techno MC Peaches starts off her second CD with the Joan Jett-sampling ''I Don't Give a....'' But Peaches does care, and her droll, sharply observed songs can't be dismissed as mere soundtracks for one-handed listening. Now grafting meaty guitars and ferocious singing onto her minimal electronic beats, she summons the very spirit of rock & roll. ''Kick It,'' a boisterous duet with Iggy Pop, may even give her the crossover hit she deserves.
