Guitar/drums duo keeping the rock and fucking roll alive. Fans of Digger and the Pussycats, AC/DC, John Spencer Blues Explosion, The Gun Club, hell even Kiss better not miss this one. These songs shift and swagger, butt-rape the blues, belch beer flames, spit blood and puke pure lead-based rock and roll. Good riffs that border on 70’s butt rock, hard smashing stuff that puts punks to shame, urgent vocals. Just a great nod to the formula of guys with a mic, drums, and a loud guitar. Fuck yeah! Pretty much any song will do.

1) rootsy feel ends up with old school bash-out parts, epic rock and roll ending
2) bad ass swagger guitar lick, shifts to a bit of a 70’s butt-rock riff feel
3) rockin open high-hat beat, urgent, pretty kick ass
4) riffy, guitar doubles up on the vocal melody
5) feels like a bashing intro or the like 6) swagger riff, bad ass as it gives way to some hard rockin
7) a bouncier rhythm with a “pink eye” theme, cant lose
8) FCC
9) upbeat 2/4 bouncy rock, lower-fi somehow
10) AC/DC feel for sure in the guitar, bad ass
11) guitar riffy, melodic in some sorta weird 70’s way, gets all 7th chord blues rock
12) upbeat near poppy feel, like a “crowd pleaser”
13) oh yeah! How come their best songs sorta smack of AC/DC, this is good shit, half cuz its more stripped down and just all about the beat and the vocals
14) waltzy ¾ feel, cheesier with the dubbed guitar leads
15) riffage, sorta darker
16) gots some vocal harmonies that don’t work, imho, but is this a cover? That might excuse it
17) of course they end this with their nutts (and bolts): just a bad ass swagger, look-at-me-again-and-theres-gonna-be-a-fight rock
