DOLLAR STORE COWBOYS - And The Horse They Rode In On...(Hatchet Wound/Infect)
This Rawkin' n' Rollin' greased up little barstad came slippin' and slidin' right up my street leaving gunky trails like rawkabilly infernoslugs the other week, coincidentally around the same time I received a copy of Redneck Girlfriend's superb Blood Sweat and Beers, who this brilliantly named buncha brawlers give a ta very much to, along with others such as Dwarves and Supersuckers. So that, and their covering The Stray Cats' How Long You Wanna Live Anyway?, Sir Cash's Folsom Prison Blues and their 9 Pound Hammer-y take on Chicken Stomp should really spray a giant sized X right in front of your face as to the sorta dustcloud they kick up and drag around with them when they blow into your town like eager evil unleashed again for a low budget horror sequel (and really, if it doesn't, either fuck off or go spend some cash), spilling out low life white trash tales of speed trials (Spanaway Speedway), whiskey soaked so called relationships (Off The Wagon), trucker babes from Hell (Highway Kat), demon drivers (Hellbent), which reminds me of The Barracudas' His Last Summer, but the surfer dude's replaced with a hell for leather quiffed up fucker driving into oblivion, and the self-explanatory Man's Ruin. Not quite as righteous as fellow purveyors of manicpilleyed trucker punk The Crosstops in this game but that's no bad thing, cos really, what the fuck is.
