Songstress Style: The Black Belles


Last Fall I became quite enthralled by the Black Belles' first single here; unfortunately, they seemed liked a mysterious flash-in-the-pan gimmick. How happy was I to find out that they are not only legit, but they have a whole album that just came out! I get the feeling Jack White is more than a little involved with production... but is that such a bad thing? Their goth-garage-girl group sounds are swell, and their dramatically witchy looks are nice as ice.






If you dig, buy their new LP.

PS: Happy 11-11-11!!!!!!!

    Neat! Neat! Neat! I love the coordinated oufits. (PS That first photo is from Printer's Alley in Nashville! It really looks about that wonderfully seedy in real life)

    I needed a replacement for the Like. These girls look even cooler.

    I love them too, and no, Jack white is in my humble opinion a guitar legend of our day and his touch on these beauties and their sound is a good thing! :) x

    I've never heard about them before but they sound allright! And their clothes, oh my! I love all their outfits, in particular that long black coat with fur trimming! :)

    They're good! they remind me a bit of the band called Ipso Facto which was popular in London around 2008-09. They sported a Louise Brooks/Mary Quant - gone goth look, and they played slow, atmospheric 60's garage - inspired music. In London, they were underground heroes, and they had a group of followers-lookalikes. Outside London , people accused them of having too much style and too little substance. Unfortunately, the band split up before they could prove those people wrong...

    They made this video for their first single:
