Girl in a Coma sure singed some eyelashes with May’s debut Both Before I’m Gone. But don’t forget they’d caught the ear of Morrissey co-songwriter Boz Boorer years before, and the eye of Joan Jett, who promptly signed the San Antone ladies to her Blackheart label last year. Not that it’s unwarranted. Their sonic punk barrage, bolted down by powerhouse vocalist/guitarist Nina Diaz, is damn catchy, and will act as a swift kick in the pants on this summer’s Warped Tour.
