From Sau Paul, Brazil, Trixie is championing the Riot Grrrl movement in her EP Manic Trixie Dream Girl, which does run the gamut of quality from track to track, though her spirit and sensibility as a frontwoman is undeniable. “Perish” is a slow, sleazy cabaret, channeling Amanda Palmer. “I Need You” is a bit too bratty, and would be the track we’d suggest remastering.

Most solid is “The Devil Himself;” it does not swing for the fences, but it is a complete ‘90s alt shredder-ballad, with Trixie’s prettiest singing voice convincing us she’s the Devil him(or her)self. Keep going! Can’t wait to hear a more polished product in the next LP, or at a live show.
