 Desperate,
bloody-lipped narco-punk from these Canuck Dead Boys/Forgotten Rebels
disciples. Actually, I dunno if the Plasty-Chillun like either one
of those ol’ punk institutions, but that lonely, ragged, late 70’s vibe
permeates these cold-hearted tracks like wind whipping in a dark alley.
They’ve got a song about Alice Cooper, called (natch) “Alice
Cooper”, that sounds like Lords of the New Church churning
out rainy 80’s Satan metal, a great, catchy, Roky Erickson-esque
garage rocker called “Demons”, and a greasy, thudding,
hell-rock closer, “Slymie”, among other notable bursts of
punky blood n’ guts. Not a happy moment on this ‘un, but if yer looking
for darkness at the edge of town, look no further then “Across the
Street from Me”. The PC are absolutely as rockin’ as a Canadian
power trio with one dude named Lowell and one dude named Marlin
in the band can possibly get. Oh, and I don’t really get why exotic-goth
model
Vidix is showing her ass all over the artwork, but I’m not
complaining, either. ______________________________________________________ |
