"A raw and lethal mix of razor-saw metal and a punky punch." The story of Leather Angel, the "female Mötley Crüe" with the Nikki Sixx-designed logo

Leather Angel as they appeared on the cover of We Came To Kill.

Leather Angel were supposed to be the “female Mötley Crüe”. That was the idea. That’s a great idea, actually. But what were Mötley Crüe, really? Were they a band? Like, a musical outfit? Not really. The first two records are pearl, but it’s just Sex Pistols meets Sweet in a garage, and the rest of their career was generic arena metal.

I apologise up front if you’re a hardcore Girls Girls Girls fan, but let’s put our cards on the table, for chrissakes. Mötley Crüe was really about bad behaviour. Mötley Crüe is what would’ve happened if you gave any random gang of fourteen-year-olds unlimited access to money, women, booze, and drugs.
