Review

by John Dougan

Opening with the tongue in cheek "We're So Cool," the Au Pairs' debut record is a stunner, from Lesley Woods' scratchy guitar and declamatory vocals to lead guitarist Paul Foad's brittle soloing. This is an uncompromising, defiant record that asks no quarter; gender roles are turned upside down, hetero- and homosexual relationships put under a microscope, and theories about sex and sexuality turned inside out. Similarly, the tense political situation in Northern Ireland is harrowingly addressed in "Armagh," which details Tory-sanctioned torture and sexual abuse of wrongly imprisoned Irish women. An unflinching look at the world, Playing with a Different Sex is one of the great, and perhaps forgotten, post-punk records. The CD reissue on RPM adds eight significant bonus cuts from 1979-1981 singles, which include different versions of tracks from the album and some songs which didn't make it onto the LP in any form.

Notes:

At the moment i'm technically unable to upload to Rapidshare. As most of you know, one hoster must be Fileserve, Filesonic or Rapidshare. I will not use Filesonic, but i tried to find a way to make downloading as comfortable as possible for all users anyway. So i thought i use a Fileserve upload with big filesizes for users with stable and fast internet connections, and one Hotfile upload with small filesizes for all users who do have an unstable/slow connection. So this is a test, i hope it will work for all of you…
