Dead Boys
Down on the Bowery from the Sleaziest Catacombs
(Cleopatra)
Scheduled for unleashing on May 22, this combines earlier releases in Cleopatra's Dead Boys series - Down on the Bowery (vol. 1) and From the Sleaziest Catacombs (vol. 2). They are part of the label's DB series. Coming in summer: Time Warp Baby (vol. 3).
Fun diseases may well have crawled across both dysfunctional technicolor minstrels and the crude adherants before them, at Hilly's squalid, 1970s Punk Central dive. But the cerebellum-hacking barrage of sneering, swerving, and brutalism splashed graffitied walls with sufficient toxicity to eradicate infestations, no matter their horror story origins or appendage counts.
Recommended: "Ain't Nothin' To Do," "Ain't It Fun," "All This and More," "3rd Generation Nation," "Dead and Alive," "What Love Is," "Search and Destroy," "High Tension Wire," "Caught with the Meat in Your Mouth," "Down In Flames," "Not Anymore," "Flame Thrower Love"
