Beehive and the
Barracudas |
 From
parts unknown (not really, but San Diego lacks the sex and
mystery needed to tell the story) Beehive and ‘Cudas are a gang of
record-label destroying fuck-blues freaks who rip it up like Pussy
Galore all messed-up on over-the-counter antihistamines here. Far as I
can tell, “Cock Ready” has been passed around like a 4 dollar whore
among several implosive record labels, finally landing comfortably in the
hands of beyond-hip Dollar Record. The cover’s got 57 penises on
it, lovingly cut and pasted with all the care and attention to detail of a
serial killer, and most of the songs are about ass fucking. The chick up
front is suitably marble-mouthed, and the band is SO loose, that I
can’t even tell if “Sex Beat” and “Hitler’s Cock”
are covers, or just borrowed titles. I wanna say “If you dig Royal Trux…”
about this, but I just know B&TBs would roll their collective eyes
and call me a square, so mebbe I’ll just say that if you like puking in
the backseats of cabs and shoplifting, you’ll have a real fuckin’ party
with this slab of sleazy, sloppy, downtown garage-punk noise. ____________________________________________________ |
