Street Jizz

Ssion is a cheap high. Totally fun the first few times, but doesn't exactly reveal deep layers of cosmic meaning on repeated use. Think Peaches. Pronounced "shun", they're a polysexual music/art/film collective from Kansas City, Mo, naturally. Fool's Gold is a nice combo of all those sounds that have been trendy lately, and hits a high point with "The Woman". Sung by a guest singer, who adopts a heavy european accent in the vein of Nina Hage, it starts out building up like a Le Tigre song that's going to drop some heavy feminism on the dance floor. A chorus of women chant "the women, all the womans", but never quit becomes a NOW theme song, and climaxes with this nuggest of wisdom: "I have one promise for you all: that not one of you will be left behind because every woman in the world ...is a woman!" Deep.
