The Detonations |
 The
Detonations are a fully engorged N’awlins power-trio, packed
with rattling guitars and Iggy-esque screams from the gutter.
That’s the really the “thing” with these cats, they all sound skinny, like
their ribs are all poking out and if you, personally, don’t feed
‘em, then they’ll probably die, right there on stage, with their big
fly-eye shades on. You know the type, right? There’s threads of late 70’s
punk in this, as well as plenty of Detroit thunder, and mebbe even a
little Jerry Lee (I think the singer even yells “CC Rider!” a few
times here and there). It’s spazzy and electric and superfreaked, and
although I don’t think the Detonations
have particularly INVENTED anything here, they do a smashing job at
keeping the spirit of primitive, strangled-cat fuck n’ roll alive. And
that’s plenty, I reckon. ____________________________________________________ |
