Semi Precious Weapons

This is a steaming hot week for the filthy glamour New York rock stars, Semi Precious Weapons. In addition to their album, You Love You, coming out June 29, they rejoin Lady Gaga (executive producer on the record) on her Monster Ball Tour today!

The first track on the album, the band sums up self-titled song Semi Precious Weapons:

“Despite being voted best band in NYC by the Village Voice, SPW are some broke ass bitches. When you use all the money you have to get your music out there, paying rent is a motherf**ker. To avoid the streets, the band has stayed in (and were later evicted from) an illegal loft above a polish sweatshop, they have shared apartments with abusive, drug-addicted convicts, and banged (mostly) hot chicks across the 5 boroughs who could supply a warm bed to some gorgeous rockers. This track will leave you screaming Stevy, as his blistering guitar solo lights your pants on fire.”

Lady Gaga

Now we see why the always edgy and outside the box Gaga has taken a liking to these brash boys.

They look sort of Velvet Goldmine-ish. At least the guy in the mesh vest.
