Red Blooded Women review on All Gigs

"Red Blooded Women do offer the music scene something different – they are not your typical girl band.
Essentially they combine their love for 1980s electro with modern day dance pop in an attempt to create their own little niche and the ‘You Made Your Bed’ EP gives us a small taster of what they have to offer.
Critics will say it’s all rather awkward but somehow it works and is a refreshing change from what the charts currently produce in the dance genre and how all-women groups are typically channelled in the music industry.
They could be described as an edgier Sugababes and to their credit this trio do at least make your ears prick up and take notice, even if the sound isn’t for you.
‘You Made Your Bed’ is certainly very catchy while the EP also features another bubbly, electro laced song called C4 2Nite” and there’s a mix of the title track by Rochelle and Dreamtrak.
There are seemingly a wide variety of noticeable influences – from Abba to Daft Punk – and their 1980s core makes for a memorable sound which wouldn’t be out of place at home or on the dancefloor."
