Pillbox

Pillbox

Pillbox has been played on NTS in shows including E. Myers, featured first on 16 March 2019. Songs played include My Silence, Chronic Pain and Corpse.

There are at least 3 bands with the name Pillbox

1) Before there was a Strokes to make it safe as milk, the snarly glam punk spirit of the Stooges, New York Dolls and Dead Boys lived for a time in the skinnyassed tattooed bodies of Pillbox, formed by former Motorcycle Boy guitarist Ratboy, they were a New York quartet who offered a skankier, more menacing and less theatrical alternative to the likeminded and better-known D Generation. In capturing the lost-boys sound and tawdry ambience of their idols without overdoing it, the energetic Jimbo's Clown Room drives down a power alley of sharp, memorable songs on twin hotrods, guided by guitarist Ratboy's slithery Johnny Thunders/Steve Jones raunch and ex-39 Steps singer Chris Barry's wavering, whiny conviction. The catchy plea to a drug dealer ("Come Up Heroin") is pitiful and obnoxious, but "What She Wants" (a reworking of Motorcycle Boy's "She Says"), "Sister Caroline" and the amphetaminized "Nowhereland" wrap the line between inspiration and imitation around history's neck to fine effect. - Ira Robbins - Trouser Press

2) Mixing the styles of Blondie and Garbage with modernized, slicked up pop rock, Pillbox finds a balance between straight up pop and indie rock. Featuring odd time signatures, gripping lyrics and enough flash to keep pop enthusiasts happy, Pillbox's style doesn't easily fall into definable regions, though alludes to several decades of rock music.
