Seeing Savages at END OF THE ROAD can easily be defined as a spiritual experience. The quality of the music, the crowd's religious attention and Jehnny Beth's prophet-like charisma.
Her presentation was immaculate.
A white loose fitting blouse. Sharp waist high black trousers. Nude stiletto heels. Long pendants. Short cropped hair.
The very picture of power dressing, a slick confliction of the androgynous and the feminine.
She gave a memorable introduction to the SAVAGES track 'Fuckers', stood high above the crowd on a speaker, she told us, with great certainty: 'Don't let the fuckers get you down.'
Iconic. The last image is from a gig in Southampton, in 2012, but I thought it was a great shot of this effortless style. Album review to follow!
Any one else a Savages fan?
