YMMV / Peaches

Go To

  • Anvilicious: Her third album, released at the height of the Bush years, was titled Impeach My Bush. Peaches is not much for subtlety.
  • Epic Riff:
    • "Kick It." Hell, you'd better have an Epic Riff handy if you're gonna collaborate with Iggy Pop.
    • Also, the self-descriptive "Rock Show," and the staccato synths of "I Feel Cream."
    • "Operate," kind of a minimalist rock number, with a strong guitar hook and an even better bass riff. You probably remember this song from Mean Girls.
  • First Installment Wins: First Album Wins: The Teaches Of Peaches is still her signature record, featuring some of her most (in)famous songs.
  • Fridge Brilliance: Well, not brilliance, but still kinda clever. Kim Gordon's guest vocal on "Close Up" has the repeated lines of "Look to the right... Look to the right..." Now why would someone ask you to turn twice... oh, of course!
  • Funny Moments: All right down to her name. Peaches. PEACHES. This combined with what her songs are about...
  • Growing the Beard: On the cover of Fatherfucker she did this literally! Musically, she started to spread her wings (and other things) a bit more on Impeach My Bush.
  • LGBT Fanbase: All that gender-bending and unabashedly open sexuality? Of course she has this.
  • Narm Charm: Peaches is just so over-the-top with everything that it's nearly impossible to take her seriously but it's what makes her unique.
  • Signature Song: "Fuck the Pain Away." The song makes its appearances in both Fresh Meat and Sex Education.
