I vaguely remember reviewing their last release and possibly not liking it. I could be wrong. I have reviewed so much stuff over the years, I can’t keep track of what I reviewed last issue. If I didn’t like the last one, I like this one. I know right away if I like a psychobilly release. If something sounds weird to me, like the way an acoustic bass is recorded, I over-focus on that and it drives me absolutely nuts. This one is recorded right and the bass doesn’t sound like someone is plucking at rubber bands. Right off the bat, I really dug the title song. Many of the tracks reminded of Siouxsie and the Banshees. I like that a lot of the songs veer away from the standard pychobilly mold, like the track “Me vs. You,” which is more of a straight-up rocker nuanced by the acoustic bass and the military drum roll style of the drummer. People outside of the psychobilly scene are really going to take notice of this one.
