Feel particularly bad about this release given that we were sue we'd already reviewed it until that is we happened across it in the ever bulging CD pile. '' is the debut release for both based 5 piece Molloy and label imprint Way Out. Pressed on green wax and limited to just 50 copies and by rights flying off the racks like proverbial sh*t off a hot shovel. Led from the front by Caz - a kind of x-rated and panting Toni Basil for grown ups - 'Tracy' is so unfeasibly horny and sexy that you might just want to consider getting a cold shower before and after you put this babe on the turntable, dirty electronic pop with shots of wired post punk intelligence - think Cobra Killer eyeballing and fronting out Salon Boris - nuff said. Flip side features the far superior and alarmingly tasty early 80's minimalist electro pop inspired 'Futurist Suit' - laden with an array of catchy fuzzy zig zagging riffs, nagging austerely acute fractured and detached signatures sourced from early career Wire and succulent floor piercing Max Factor fashioned moves on which to cut up your finest shadowy shapes upon all spliced through with hazy day-glo decorations - quite frankly if it wasn't for the very small detail that we already have a copy we'd be out now giving it legs and knocking up the local record emporium owner (not in a biblical sense you understand) for a copy.

Index7 Review, Jason Dean (06/07/2007) - www.index7.co.uk
Molloy is your friend that has an unhealthy fascination with 1970's slasher movies, 3D glasses, John Waters and carnival freaks. Now,...Molloy has this friend Tracey, who she is constantly bossing around...'Tracey move around, Tracey lose a pound' ...she's unrelenting, yelling alongside nice guitar riffs, neon and distortion...and now she's stuck in Tracey's and my head.
This feels right at home with Gossip, or Peaches. Here's their brattier little sister, demanding their turn at the mic. Also a little bit out on their own and uncategorizable, perched somewhere between White Zombie and LCD soundsystem in spirit, but really embracing the dancier side of things without losing a punk attitude, make no mistake, they will set their hotel room on fire and throw the tv out the window.
I had to give them extra points for doing an amazing job customizing their car. That's dedication, to paint your car completely checkerboard green and orange. They are serious.

MOLLOY- Tracy

Molloy are totally brilliant, this is true. They are so good they could start their own cult. Not club, cult. They are that worthy of your attention. A little fun-sized sliver of electro-pop genius, this five-piece combine simple guitar, synth and irrepressible amounts of energy to create the most outrageously catchy mantras that you will find impossible to get out of your head and will be doing the "kangaroo bop" (or something similar) in its entirety after hearing, oh, I don't know, the first five seconds? This girl-fronted five-piece, in this, their latest single released through Way Out Records, urge you to "lose a pound" and "get sexy" in the style of Le Tigre, CSS or Peaches if she wasn't so filthy and insisted on getting her crack out all the time. With a brave choice of orange and green as their favourite colours, here is finally a release with attitude, a release that will grab you by your dancing shoes and bounce you up and down until you wet yourself. Not that that would look very cool and would probably ruin said dancing shoes. Anyway, Molloy should take over the world. Only you can make that happen.

We just got another review of Tracy!

"Tracy is an absolutely filthy sounding record. And not in the normal sense of people playing sexless rock but using a distorted bass and howling a lot. No, filthy in a realistically sweaty, unedifying, holding-in-the-stomach, lagery breath kind of way. Caz Molloy digs her nails into three minutes of Cracked Actor guitars and controlled yelping to leave you feeling like you need a dozen showers and a night in a darkened room reading The Wasteland in order to recover."

So.... we didn't win the XFM Music Response / Uploaded contest. By 1%! It was very close, so thanks a lot to all the people who voted for us! And even if we're not the winner, they liked us so much that we'll be playing for the live XFM Music Response night at Clockwork on 30th August, thanks to the lovely Broccoli Music.

Here's what happened last night whilst they annouced the winner on XFM...

Last night we were down at Clockwork for that last minute gig. We all went back to the Molloymobile at 9pm to listen to XFM and cross our fingers and scream. So... we were all sat in the Molloymobile, which was parked outside the venue, and we were all drinking beer. That, for some bizarre reason, caught the attention of two obviously bored policewomen who stopped just by the car for about 5 minutes until they called Chaz to check something "minor". Is it the color of the car? Are we allowed bright green and orange on the road? Are we too cool for the road? Can you still smoke in you car with the smoking ban? Luckily we hadn't had time to spray our last stencil "thisisfuckingbrilliant.com"... It turned out something on their computer said the Molloymobile wasn't insured! Well it is, but Chaz still got a "producer". He did try to seduce one of them by giving her a flyer and telling them to come to the gig. But without success. They explained to Chaz that the only reason why they stopped and checked the car was because we were all drinking inside. Surely the color of it did something for it too. Because since when you can't drink in your car when it's parked! Anyway, the good thing was that we had a better reception for the radio when the polive van was next to us!

It is the second time in a few weeks that our Molloymobile gets into some trouble with the police, just for being the only car you notice on the street! I say they're jealous.

There's an interview with Molloy on Londonist!

And whilst you're there, click on "recommend this". That'll get the article to stay up there for a little while!

Well, they did call us Malloy though! We'll forgive him/her only because he gave us a very good 7/7 review...

IT'S MOLLOY!
