Bring It On - Horrorpops

Advantages: Excellent modern psychobilly/rockabilly
Disadvantages: Good follow up to debut, but not as good as Hell Yeah

...psychobilly purists may not find Bring It On to be as straightforward as any of the releases of the Nekromantix (Kim Nekroman's other band) but anybody wishing to take a break from generic stomping sounds will definitely find something rewarding here. Although the Horrorpops psychobilly roots show through here on such songs as "Walk Like A Zombie" and "Freaks in Uniform". ...

Value for Money

Highly recommended

Advantages: It's just a really great album
Disadvantages: some tracks are too similar

This is a fantastic psychobilly band who are particularly big in the US. This genre of music gets very little publicity which is a shame because if people heard these tracks they'd definitely be chart toppers, particularly 'miss take', 'Where they wander', and 'Julia'. If you haven't heard this genre of music before then this is a great place to start. I guess Psychobilly is best described as 50's rock n roll infused with punk. I'm trying to think ...

The Astromen Commeth?

Advantages: Great Surf From Outer Space
Disadvantages: eXPEREMENTATIOPN AND NOODLING

This was the final release by outer-space surf visonaries Man or Astroman? before they went on an indefinate hiatus. During this period one member of the band has been researching bio-desil. Though there seems to be some activity by the Astromen as ther are locating video footage of themselves for a DVD release. What do they sound like well immagine what would have happened it The Shadows, Link Wray or Dick Dale had unlimited access to outer space ...
...start from there..... A Transmittion of the songs on this album and my opinions on them follows.. I. Pathway To The Infinate The sond is constructed around a heavy drum beat and some strange samples of and incedental noise, think of it as an introduction. II. Song of the Two-Mile Linear Particle Accelerator Stanford University, Stanford, California This is a superb high speed bit of technological surf, where a lot of garage and surf bands have ...

A String of Pseudo Pearls

Advantages: Excellent backing tracks, competent vocals, a couple of strong pop hits
Disadvantages: Not much in the way of soul, some dull tracks, all rather dated now

...on soul music. A String of Pearls Going back to my dad’s old Sanyo radio cassette recorder there was a song which was oft played by myself back in 1974 called “Guilty”. Performed by the Pearls I loved it and have vague recollections of a Top of the Pops performance which incorporated judges’ wigs. I have hunted high and low for this clip on the internet and sadly can only conclude it was wiped, as so many “Top of the Pops” episodes were prior ...
...that their compilation CD “A String of Pearls” had to be worth a punt if only to reminisce about my childhood. The album has 24 tracks, including all singles and B-sides the girls recorded. To the best of my knowledge the Pearls never released an album in the seventies so there are no obvious “album tracks” but there are several curiosities if you are familiar with music from the early 1970s. The overall sound is of close harmonies and pseudo Phil ...
