The Chikitas
ESNS:
2016
This two-way rock outfit from Geneva revel in adrenaline-pumping, noise-laden anthems, all delivered with emphatic zest and zeal. Implausible as it may sound, these two feisty young women could be the first to successfully translate the withered, buzzsaw-like aural assault of Steve Albini's Shellac to an arena rock format. The Chikitas' unabashed brutality, irresistible hooks and a devil-may-care attitude should do the rest.
