Screaming Females

New guitar gods don’t come around too often, and when they do, they almost never stem from punk circles. Screaming Females shredder Marissa Paternoster is breaking from tradition. Over seven albums with her New Jersey power trio, she has honed a loose, gnarly and endlessly hooky guitar style inspired by first-wave British punk bands, pairing her slashy riffs with a badass, Johnny Rotten snarl. The group’s latest album for Don Giovanni Records, All At Once, is one of their most eclectic yet, a sprawling hodgepodge of heavy alt-rock, ripping punk, bluesy slow numbers and gritty throwback classic rock. A talented cartoonist, Paternoster drew its cover herself. As with the band’s previous bills at Cactus Club, Screaming Females will be joined by a couple of solid openers, including Philadelphia’s Radiator Hospital, whose latest album, Play The Songs You Like, blasts through 16 tracks of sunny, poppy, buzzy indie-punk.
