Eastside Suicides

Streets Got Your Baby

(Desolate Sounds)



E
cstatic-at-its-own-lifeforce Rock'n'Roll that explodes from the dancefloor's middle with ear-ripping loudness and six-string slashings in the frenzied technicolor spirit of Johnny T. Raucous onrush of this barely controlled caliber provoked Detroit's blue-jeaned Iguauna to floor convulsions. Upon its maiden rack-occupancy some 20 years ago, the Eastside Suicides' debut LP was hailed by scribes including at New York's Village Voice. Crisp reissue features four previously unavailable testaments to the group's salvatory merit in a mortal coil-circumstance too frequently dismal. Nothing rabble-rouses like The Beat.

Recommended: "Panic In My Pants," "How Much For Nothin'," "Pink Personality," "Tell Me...I Gotta Know," "Booker T. Projects," "Eastside Suicide," "Bad News," "Don't Kiss Me...I'll Kiss You," "Center Of Destruction," "Black Leather Boots," "Tear Me Apart," "Justa Lookin'," "All Dressed Up," "Streets Got Yo Baby"
