No less an authority than Julian Cope described Glitter Wizard as “unashamedly glamorous hard rock,” and he’s not wrong. These San Francisco-based longhairs from another dimension were raised on punk and mix screaming riffs with a high-octane stage show full of sequins, headbanging and a sonic attack that’ll leave you dazed and ready for the next hit. Imagine the Stooges stole the outfits from the Spiders from Mars, synth man Dik Mik from Hawkwind and hit the stage on a speed bender. Their latest EP, Kiss the Boot, is a stylistic departure for the band, in which they deep dive into the glitter rock/bovver rock/junkshop glam world. Within this realm, they create their own take on the sub-genre, while mixing and matching some of their faves as in their version of Bowie’s “Suffragette City” which sounds like a cover by Gary Glitter. From the anthemic “Pogo Tonight” to the single/video “Glitterati,” this is collection of six slam-bang, show-stopping party rockers.
