Spike Fuck is inspired primarily by love and obsession, addiction, sexual disorientation, Catholic guilt and washed up 60s musicians who make overproduced comeback albums a decade later crying out for redemption and a maybe even just little bit of the limelight back. Spike Fuck describes her music and attitude as a whole (for the sake of classification and utility) as “smackwave” – a blend of late 80s new wave and late 70s post-punk, a dash of country music/singer-songwriter sensibilities delivered in Las Vegas Ballroom karaoke vocal style. Currently working on her first full-length project, she describes her sound as “country music uncovered in an archived .zip file somewhere on the Deep Dark Web.” But above all else – in the post-smackwave era Spike – lies at its heart a story of redemption, forgiveness and the ability to transcend pain through singing and dancing about it.
