L7: Smell The Magic (Glitterhouse)***½
Roy Wilkinson, Sounds, 6 October 1990
THE FOXCORE tag may have been coined with tongues in cheeks but L7 prove the NWOAB (New Wave Of American Babes) has substance. Their second album, Smell The Magic comes after a debut on Epitaph Records, a batch of compilation appearances and a shot on the sometimes 'ironically' misogynist Sub Pop label's Singles Club.
