The Deadcats
Look Like Hell CD
Look Like Hell is Canadian Psychobilly legends The Dead Cats 7th CD release. Packed with infectious revved-up hillbilly meets nasty Link Wray style Rock 'n' Roll, it's a brand of Psychobilly that the band calls "Hellbilly". The Deadcats' line-up features the stinging dual lead guitars of Chopper and Gorehound, standup drummer Kermit Von Munster (ex-Big John Bates), and lead growler Mick Tupelo who also slaps the doghouse bass. With great low-brow cover artwork by King Merinuk.
Multi-faceted musicians of the highest order dish it up.
I loved reviewing this because you never know what’s coming next. This mob can take virtually any of the styles that are loosely enveloped in the Rock N Roll genre and excel in playing it. You have the lot here, Rockabilly, Surf, 60’s Instrumental, Psychobilly, Hillbilly and a mixture of most of it slammed into the blender. There is always a danger that you can stretch yourself too far and be a jack of all trades and a master of none but this band are an exception to that rule for sure. Great stuff.
