Back In the Day, 1999

Twistin' Tarantulas

Welcome To Our Underworld

(P-Man Records)



The puissant Twistin' Tarantulas have seen several line-up changes, but leader "Pistol" Pete Mitgard always stands tall at the center. Here hurtled adamantium bluntness urged on by a swinging backbeat.

Recommended: "Welcome To Our Underworld," "Two Dogs In the Street," "Ballad Of the Midnight Ballerina," "Roughneck," "Hurricane Love," "Barroom Confidential," "In the Arena," "Kiss thee Ring of 'The Man'"
