The Virgin Tongues
File under: Shoegaze, Glam, Garage
With a dad like Bobby Tijuana you probably don't have any other choise then becoming a musician as well. Mike and his band "The Virgin Tongues" are a homage to The Velvet Underground, Andy Warhol and the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Their first smashhit 'Six Feet Underground' is on heavy rotation in every in-club in Berlin.. we think: It has got the potential to be a hit all over the nation. Their first full-lenght is already recorded and will be released pretty soon...
In Berlin the people say about The Virgin Tongues: They always out of money looking for free booze while being surrounded by the hottest chicks in the place. Sounds pretty Rock'n'Roll doesn't it? And of course, their glam style is fitting this picture just perfect.
In the beginning of 2oo8 the three guys played at some 8mm-label-shows at the Bassy with Singapore Sling from Island.
