intro
Mediocre 70's flavoured glam rock, which owes too much of a debt to the Darkness, from Pink Grease
Pink Grease hail from Pulp country but dont have Pulp's ear for a good tune. 'Strip' is a 70's flavoured glam rock piece without too much glam. The vocals sound something like those of Justin Hawkes from the Darkness but that's not a good thing, guys. 'Strip' flows along without sounding particulary interesting or earth shattering unless your twelve and have just discovered Placebo and your mothers make up bag. Its sleeve looks like the band have just came out of an late showing of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.'. 'Physical Attraction', the B side, is a little more interesting and has a dirty feel about it. Elegant backing helps it drag on by and thus makes it a superior track to the A side.
