Otto’s Daughter’s A New Kind of Heroine is one mean sounding disc!  The female fronted band has a hard hitting metal sound, dark vocals, and just the right amount of electronic elements to keep you heavily stimulated from beginning to end.

I first listened to the album in my car while driving to work, and I got there a lot faster than normal.  It’s got a great beat and a lot of drving songs like the first track, Kiss My Ass…  you just can’t beat the hard hitting sound of this band.  The vocals are a little bit different from a lot of other female fronted bands, but that’s part of the allure of this band.  The dark nature of Jacqueline Van Bierk’s voice is really what gives this band its edge… it’s over the top!

While A New Kind of Heroine an amazingly well produced disc, I strongly feel that Otto’s Daughter probably shines most on stage. The energy is there just waiting to hit you twice as hard live, and I can imagine that it makes for an amazing live show!

If you haven’t had a chance to hear this band yet, I strongly suggest that you do so, but do it with caution… if you’re listening to them in the car, you might find yourself driving just a little bit too fast!
