[one of these better-late-than-never reviews]
Boy am I in the mood for this album! Like a firecracker under your mate's bar-stool, this eight-tracker explodes with a reckless, beer-fuelled rock'n'roll party attitude that is as relentless in its attack as it is righteously chaotic. Positively overdosing with the same punk rock intensity as fellow Leeds act The Sex Maniacs, songs such as the raucous ‘Nothing on Me’ fire out of the speakers with all the power of a double-barrel shotgun, while others dress up the cool sleaze of JSBX with the raw energy of Detroit gun slingers Zeke (‘I’ll Take The Alcohol’), Murder City Devils (‘Big City Taxi’) and even Division of Laura Lee (‘Lost In The Sauce’).
The song titles alone give you a good idea of the kind of rock ’n’ roll head stomp Buzzkill create: the kind of music perfect for putting on when the pubs have shut too early and all you wanna do is drink and party all night, on your own if necessary.
This is loud. This is fiery. This will kick your ass.
