	The Bangles - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bangles were one of the new generation of independent all-women bands that followed The Go-Go's in the early 1980s.
		They were forced to change their name to The Bangles when a band from New Jersey, also named The Bangs, threatened to sue.
		The Bangles are the subject of an irreverent tribute song by The Saw Doctors entitled "I'd Love to Kiss the Bangles".

		The song was the Bangles' "Going Down to Liverpool," and Nimoy had been drafted into the video by guitarist/vocalist Susanna Hoffs, an old family friend.
		But even beyond the Bangles' music and style, the budding feminist in me loved that they were women who played instruments.
		Even as the Bangles became a pop-culture phenomenon in '86 -- particularly with "Manic Monday" and the supremely silly "Walk Like an Egyptian" -- I noted that many of their songs were semi-obscure covers and followed their example of seeking out good music beyond the radio.

	The Bangles Collective
		The Bangles, Susanna Hoffs, Debbi Peterson, Vicki Peterson and Michael Steele are MORE than their breeze pop hits.
		Raised on equal parts Beatles, Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and other 1960s influences mixed with modern pop sensibility and ingenuity, The Bangles have turned in what is perhaps their most mature and tuneful album to date.
		This website, The Bangles Collective is a labor of love and expression of my profound gratitude and appreciation for the band and their music.

	BBC - h2g2 - The Bangles - The Band
		The Bangles became one of the best-known chart bands in the 1980s thanks to their numerous hits, particularly the big three of 'Eternal Flame', 'Walk Like An Egyptian' and 'Manic Monday'.
		From garage beginnings in the early 1980s, through polished pop perfection and a 1989 breakup, the story of the Bangles was dramatic enough to be the subject of a VH1 'Behind the Music' in 2000.
		The more rock-oriented Bangles old-style tracks 'Everything I Wanted' and 'What I Meant To Say' went unreleased and appeared later as B-sides and bonus tracks, perhaps confirming the direction in which the band, or parts of the band, were moving.

		The Bangles' transformation from Merseybeat and garage-smart guitar band to near-definitive example of buffed-and-polished corporate popsters is one of the great rock mysteries of the '80s.
		The Bangles are one of those bands that many people will never admit to liking, but will turn up the volume and sing along when "Manic Monday" comes on the radio.
		Anyway, having had all three of the Bangles albums, the Less Than Zero soundtrack, and both of Susanna Hoffs' studio albums, and me being aware that yeah, there were two new songs on there, I figured why bother, I wasn't missing much.

		Somehow we were misinterpreted to be this manufactured machine." In fact, it wasn't until the Bangles recently engaged in a flurry of sold out shows that fans and music scribes rediscovered what made pop's preeminent girl group a jarring, melodic, breath of fresh air in the first place.
		Others were born in the Bangles' boileroom, reminiscent of past writing sessions: members furiously trading riffs, lyrics scrawled on napkin scraps in hopes of hitting on what Susanna refers to as "that X-factor" that brings a song to life.
		The Bangles do a little "pinching" of their own on the new album, laying down a ballzy cover of Elvis Costello's recent song "Tear Off Your Own Head (it's a doll revolution)." "Elvis was working on a TV pilot about, what else - a girl group," laughs Debbi.

		In 1983, the Bangles plans for stardom were almost derailed when the IRS subsidary label, Faulty Products, the label that released the EP, went out of business and Annette Zilinskas decamped for the country-punk outfit, "Blood On The Saddle." This touched off a search for a new bassist.
		The Bangles had hit paydirt and were well on their way to taking over the music world, but they were on the edge of a breakdown.
		All the hidden tension and frustraitions came to a head during the Bangles' "Everything Everywhere Tour." The other Bangles were growing increasingly resentful of the "star treatment" given Susanna Hoffs by the media, the public, and by this time, the band's management and record label.

		The Bangles are a walking advertisement for the low-GI way of living, a musical nutritionist's dream.
		The Bangles began in the early '80s Los Angeles underground with a debut album mixing a love of '60s pop with just enough roughness around the edges to keep them from being considered more than palate cleansers.
		The result was a show that didn't feel like a nostalgia night but a reminder that there's still fun to be had with a band that understands sweeteners are additives, not the main ingredients.

		They hadn't done a Bangles show together in 10 years, so they were a little nervous about playing the high profile gigs coming up at the House of Blues, so they decided to do an unannounced (or barely announced) gig at a local club as a warmup.
		Us fans were lucky enough to hear about the gig warmed up to their sweet-as-honey harmonies as if they'd never missed a beat.
		You could tell the Bangles were loving playing their music for us, and we were certainly loving having them back performing.
