Somewhere between poets and punk rockers, 8 Inch Betsy is three women full of vitriol, lyricism and insight. It's music for those of us who know that feeling between restraint and release, action and reaction. Singer and guitarist Meghan Galbraith's gale force vocals encapsulate all the angst, anger and eventual relief that accompanies catharsis, and Liz Burke's bass and Melissa Thomas's drums play together like a garage thump from years gone by.
