"Review of their first (st) cd"

Listening to this CD is like a grandmother looking into her gradndaughter's eyes, and seeing bits and pieces from every generation thus far, manifesting itself in something fresh and full of life. Following in the steps of greats Sleater-Kinney and Team Dresch, this 2000 self-released album is raw, inspiring and energizing----all the proof you need that the underground grrrl revolution is alive and well! If you liked their track on the 2001 Mr. Lady comp Calling All Kings and Queens, you'll fall in love with this album. - Lady Slipper

Bio

Broken strings and broken hearts have had Oriflamme fans hooked since 1998 when three girls got together and decided that they were going to create strong, stylish music come hell or high water. The quirky trio soon found themselves battling power outages, rat infestations, and the girl-group stereotypes that predominate a booming music town. Luckily, heart-felt harmonic hooks and an unassuming sense of badass saved Oriflamme from falling into any one type of sound. Now they're committed to saving the world chord-by-chord. The band's history spans a deep-rooted friendship and a strong commitment to benefit causes. Today, they're still screamin' and crooning with a willingness to stand for what's right and a sound that's as dynamic and sincere as the heart itself.

Since the birth of this band in late 1998 Oriflamme has been one of the best hidden secrets out there. Hotties in disguise. A magical music that has been buried and hidden like a secret treasure. Oriflamme has been featured on a compilation CD titled Calling all Kings and Queens that features other well known talented acts such as The Butchies and Le Tigre.
