 Rolling Stone : Divinyls: Desperate : Music Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Meet–if you dare–Christina Amphlett, the pint-size lead singer for this down-under quintet, whose debut album is a fine and feisty piece of rock & roll.
Amphlett's banzai vocals fuse the growly conviction of Joan Jett with the frenetic ululations of Lene Lovich for a vocal package that suggests a Sydney-spawned Patti Smith.
Her brash breathiness on the gender-twister "Boys in Town" is reminiscent of "Pumping (in My Heart)," and the blistering "Siren" shows she can cut a raveup with the best of them.

Amphlett's vocals have a soft, impish undertone once moment, other times she yells out "I'm talking to you!"
The sense of desperation concealing a suppressed rage is evident here: "I've been running back all my tears just so the pressure don't show/like a timbomb ticking away/I might blow up somebody" and "don't push, don't shove/you'd better watch what you do." Also from Temperamental.
The rocker "Boys In Town" from Desperate has an intense trapped sound, highlighted by Amphlett's pleading "Get me out of here" refrain at the end, the backing band singing "too much too young", and a great guitar solo.

We were right across the street from The Grand Avenue and I can't remember if just she and I went over or if we all did and the two of us got separated from the pack.

Amphlett had impeccable pop credentials, being the cousin of Sixties Australian pop icon Little Pattie and closely related to pioneer Aussie rocker Col Joye and his brother, leading promoter Kevin Jacobsen.
As their record company was quick to capitalize on their success by releasing the Essential collection of hits from the first three albums, and the Divinyls Live authorized bootleg in 1991, the band did not rush to put out new studio material.
Although Heart Of Steel was chosen as a single, the band decided to discontinue working with Forsey, because, in Amphlett's words, "he was a bit too 'pop' for us." The remaining tracks were produced by Charley Drayton, who also provided drums on both diVINYLS and Underworld, and to whom Amphlett is currently married.

Some examples of this crossing-over is Christina Amphlett’s desire to do get into theater.
When she looked right at me while she was singing, I felt transported back to the age of 15 and couldn’t help but flush with embarrassment.
