Description

Rare original official video release The history of RockBitch reads like the history of no other band. The group is actually a subset of a matriarchal communal society. This society is of pagan theology and believes in sex as a form of free expression, and seeks to break the sexual taboos of society, especially as they apply to women. The first band that can be said to have a direct link to RockBitch is Cat Genetica, which was formed in 1989 by the Bitch and the Beast. The group was later renamed Red Abyss. After many personnel changes they changed their name again to RockBitch. The name change also heralded changes of musical style (becoming harder-edged), lyrical style (taking on a more serious tone), and stage philosophy (the band began expressing their sexual politics onstage). This last change took the form of the group, by now almost exclusively female, performing sex acts on stage and performing, at least partially, in the nude. Needless to say, these factors have caused the group to attract a lot of controversy over time. This official live release is where most fans have seen the band since their shows frequently have been greatly restricted by local authorities. On other occasions tours have been completely cancelled due to legal reasons. This was released in 1997 and it had already been withdrawn by the time the band released their debut album Motor Driven Bimbo in 1999.
