Petty Crime Concert History

Petty Crime was a UK band that existed for a few years at the end of the 1990s. Sharp, breathless, and petulant, they released one EP on Slampt in 1998: five songs that strung a tightrope between the bratty defiance of riot grrrl and the taut shove of postpunk. In 1999, they recorded three songs in a Brighton bedroom, a melodic and prickly blast that is somehow both deliberate and wild.
