HOLES
I'm alone
I'm alone
I'm a man full of holes
With a shotgun, ready to go
I'm alone
I can dance
I can move
I can f*ck like a man with nothing left to lose
But, I'm alone
I can make it a scream
I can make it a dream
I can do it, do it, but I definitely need you
'cause I'm alone
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, everything's perfect, everything's just great
For a man with a plan full of holes who knows he's gonna explode
I need You, I need You, I need YouAll the leaves...
All the leaves, fall for me
Four thousand, one hundred fifty three, for me
All the reasons I saved, all the feelings have gone away
like the leaves on a grave, covering and blowing home away
All the seeds sown for me
Choking weeds keeping me from me
All the reasons I saved, all the feelings have gone away
like the leaves on a grave, covering and blowing home away
All the leaves, fall for me
Four thousand, one hundred fifty three, for me
Hands Up
Hands up, I've got the girl
This move changes your world
One thing you sir should know
I feel like I could blow
Can't do it all on my own
My red dancer in bloom
I beg pictures of you
I'll pay ransoms and dues
For stains scented of you
Can't do it all on my own
The GardenShe sold her heart for armor
And now she's rusting out
She waits there in The Garden
With bones and music boxes
Hard hands and frozen eyes
She waits there in The Garden
It's so real, this love is gone.
Pull out the dirty knives
Cut the ribbons from your eyes
I'll wait here in The Garden
Sail your sadness out to sea
Watch this burning city breathe
I'll wait here in The Garden
It's so real, this love is gone.
Fashion Kills
On the corner, standin', starin' the ghost down
Pledge allegiance to the god on his shirt
It's a pity all this pretty's so wasted
Being this beautiful hurts
Fashion!
Come on check, a city to feast on, I
only let the girl to do it in peace, I, I
I'm eletrical and doin' it freestyle, a
barely beautiful fashion ghost!
Fashion, kills.
All the kiddies gonna sell it at seaside
All romantical and doin' a visa
All the head I got it doin' a freakshow
It's simply to be fashion...
Go!
Fashion!Killing the Aries
I'm a Libra killing off the Aries
I'm alone and takin' it
All the buggies chewin' up the airwaves, modeling and fakin' it
Come on and feed me!
Come on and shovel it!
Come on and pay me!
Come on commit!
Feed on me,
Love on me,
You're a greedy mosquito,
sucking and leaving,
Feed on me!
Come on and feed me!
Come on and shovel it!
Come on and pay me!
Come on commit!
Come on and feed me!
Come on and shovel it!
Come on and pay me!
Come on commit!GOD DAMN YOU
God Damn You
Oh, I love you, so
I let you go
and I wait
God Damn You
I, I want you
so I, I let you slide
and I wait
Can't you wait?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Can't you wait?
Oh, I would do anything, for you
Oh, that's a lie
I wish you well
In spite of all you've done to me
Hope you burn in hell
So I can save you
God damn you
Oh, I know you,
So, if I let you go, then I'll pay
God damn you
I, if I want you then I
I'll let you slide
and I'll wait
Can't you wait?
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Can't you wait?
Oh, oh, no
Oh, I would do anything, for you
Oh, that's a lie
I wish you well
In spite of all you've done to me
Hope you burn in hell
So I can save you
GOD DAMN YOU!
I LOVE YOU SO!
I LET YOU GO!
AND I WAIT!
GOD DAMN YOU!
I WANT YOU, SO I
I LET YOU SLIDE AND I WAIT!

Press
- "As hard drugs go it's pretty dirty, even more so if you've read the recent news about large amounts of it containing flesh
eating bacteria (drug use is as sexy as ever!). But from JJ Cale to Eric Clapton, "Cocaine" has been a rock and roll haunt
of an auditory tale. Wicked shit, but a hell of a song. LA band of badassery Sabrosa Purr has turned pusher and tackled
the tale, doing it mighty fine justice, so much so that I suspect Sir Slowhand, himself, would give it a royal wink of approval."

Gigspunk Review of July 15th show at The Satellite in Los Angeles, CA
"I’m a little hesitant to mention Sabrosa Purr next because I fell in love after hearing them. While I enjoy a broad spectrum of musical styles, sometimes there’s that little proverbial itch that needs scratching, and even if it’s been temporarily ignored. So when they came on and started with a solid, heavy, gut shaking song called “Fucking a Monster” I knew I was in exactly the right place at the right moment. Theirs was the perfect set for letting the vodka take hold and forget all the crap that happened during the week. The performance was raw yet still conscious of shadows and Will Love’s level of vocal cord shredding was sublimely cathartic.
Bless this band for handing out copies of their “To The Crickets and The Ghosts” CD for the price of an e-mail address. I’ve been listening to it quite a lot since, as well as other tracks from “Music from the Violet Room”. They have a sound that gives such satisfaction; able to achieve the sonic violence of warp in a blink but also envelop the listener in afferent velvet.
Mention should also be made of their ending cover of “Cocaine” last Friday night. It was great; a slinky rendition that culminated with guitarist Jeff Mendel and bassist Victoria Mordoch joining Mahsa Zargaran on the drums. Pretty much sealed the deal for me, and so I could end there."

Review of Roxy Show 8/19/2010
Sabrosa Purr
My favorite LA band use to be J* Davey, but now I think it’s Sabrosa Purr. Their show was completely enchanting. They are pure, un-cut rock-n-roll. Their sound is like Portishead meets Soundgarden, and just as beautiful to look at.
The chemistry of a female bassist and a female drummer on stage was refreshingly different. This band went from heavy riffs to a light ambient sound like they were unanimously switching on an off a light bulb. Their intimacy on stage gave me the chills.
For me, Sabrosa Purr was something unexpected, and that is what was so wonderful about their performance. Their cover of Eric Clapton’s “Cocaine” was unmatchable. Seriously, if you have a chance, don’t miss their next show! They rocked me!
LA WEEKLY
Yes, there are still amateur Angeleno bands building robust reps through self-financed recordings and compelling club shows (and without monkeying themselves out to reality TV). Sabrosa Purr are an odd collision of loner, stoner introversion and crotch-thrusting fuzz-box rawk. They lurch from the ultra-ethereal, flotation-tank vocals and slithery, succulent guitars of "Suckerpunch Kiss" to the open-shirted glam strut of "Fashion Kills" without so much as an explanation or apology. Though probably more convincing at the former than the latter, they seldom sound contrived. Yet for every moment of earnest Pink Floyd-ish psychedelia, each hint of enigmatic early Cure b-sides or sexy T-Rex flexes, Sabrosa Purr are really all about the original Jane's Addiction -- they're eclectic because Jane's were. The heavily delayed yelps of "Killing the Aries" and "Sabrosa Purr, Pt. 1"'s druggy whimper are downright Jane's addicted, but they're lost in enough love to forget and forgive. Few bands traverse heel-stomping, classic-rock crunch and eyes-clenched, headphone bliss like this.-Paul Rodgers- LA Weekly
THE DELI MAGAZINE:
Thank the Los Angelinos gods for precious, little diamonds like Sabrosa Purr. Bands like this don't come by the dozen in this desert, and I have nothing but good things to say about their latest genre-defying release "To The Crickets and The Ghosts". Drawing inspiration from the likes of PJ Harvey, The Smashing Pumpkins and Pink Floyd, it's hard to pinpoint their exact sound (which, as in "My Song For The Girls", can leap from a low, quietly hypnotic guitar line [think "No Surprises" by Radiohead] to the astronomical heights of a heavily fuzz-driven, scream singing tag [think MBV style Chorus with something like Bixler-Zavala-esque vocals in a few blinks of an eye], but whatever it is that they're mixing together in their rehearsal time, it slides down wonderfully and leaves me slamming my glass down on the bar and asking for another. I'm sure more than a handful of bands in the greater L.A. area can claim the previously mentioned groups as influences, but the way these musical scientists tastefully formulate their concoctions makes it fresh, dreamy, and definitely worth my time.- Alex Valles
FILTER MAGAZINE
"The three-piece has been turning heads with their daring dichotomy of high-octane rock and ambient soundscapes. Vocalist/guitarist Will Love has the uncanny ability to evoke PJ Harvey and Kurt Cobain, sometimes even in the same song as he goes from a guttural howl to a hushed croon. Critics have compared their sound to the Smashing Pumpkins, Janes Addiction and Pink Floyd while trend setting radio stations such as Seattle's KEXP and Los Angeles' Indie 103.1 have showed their support early on by playing several tracks off their EP."- Filter-Mag.com
ONE TIMES ONE
"Sabrosa Purr are the most mystifying, bizarre, and intriguing band you’ll hear for a long while. They can swing from tender folk to bombastic metal at the drop of a hat, and it never seems forced or contrived. The simple answer is that this is a band that loves music, and loves so much of it that they can’t be bothered to choose just one style. How rebellious, how bold."-Emily Tartanella
http://www.onetimesone.com/music-reviews/sabrosa-purr-music-from.php
This latest EP is a delightful trip out and spacey indie rock jam that needs to be heard. One minute you are basking in it’s floaty clouds of heaven, and then all of a sudden it thrusts you into the head of the monster as you are devoured for all its worth. Some of it reminds me of a more tripped out Jane’s Addiction, though definitely the early years.
The stand out track is clearly “The Lovely People,” a rocker with thick as meat riffs and driving rhythm that will have you bopping your head. It’s dirty, free of disease and yet so intoxicating you probably shouldn’t drive after hearing it. You could easily hear this one on that big corporate alternative rock station in your area (if you even still have one) or in the back corner of that ultra cool record store you sometimes visit. Word of advice: next time you’re there make sure and pick this one up.
