Barbies get every Ken on their knees!
From HELLsinki, the rock capital of Finland, comes this all-girl no-bullshit rock’n’roll band ready to conquer every corner of the planet with their ass kicking riffs and in-your-face attitude. Barbe-Q-Barbies have been touring the dirtiest rock clubs since 2002 carefully developing their pack, releasing singles and writing better and better songs. Now they are ready to let loose their debut album All Over You. The album features handful of catchy rock songs crafted by girls themselves, and to add some surprise they have recorded the old Sweet classic Wig-Wam Bam with their own signature style. Niki’s seducing vocals and Kaisa’s fiery guitar work lead the band forward as they keep on doing what they love - rock’n’roll!
Their latest album “BORROWED TIME” is full of licks and hits harking back to the glory years of AC/DC, QOTSA, KISS, and MOTÖRHEAD, but with an added fuel injection of Helsinki attitude and femme fatale vocals that'll blow your mind. With this the BARBIES have simultaneously created their own style and revitalized the genre.

The lyrics to Barbe-Q-Barbies's song "Babylon" are quite intricate and filled with imagery and symbolism. The singer starts by expressing a sense of power and defiance, declaring that they are concussed in Babylon, which can be interpreted as feeling disoriented and overwhelmed in a chaotic and corrupt world. Despite the challenges, the singer sees themselves as a walking paradigm and a leader, embracing their role in shaping their own destiny. They reference being followed by the grim reaper, representing the constant threat of mortality and mistakes catching up with them, but they assert their own godlike control over their fate.
The singer highlights their resilience and determination, stating that they will make the time and show their love and commitment to a significant other. The repeated refrain of "She ain't fake No Babylon" suggests a rejection of falsehood and superficiality, emphasizing the importance of authenticity and genuine connections.
