Free Music Notes for The Sacrilicious Sounds of the SupersuckersFree Music Review: I really like the Supersuckers, but... Hit: 2 Stars...I can't dig the way they stole Thin Lizzy songs and passed them off as their own. There are a few songs on this album that are really Thin Lizzy songs from a lesser-known Thin Lizzy album called "Renegade."
Free Music Review: Awesome Hit: 5 StarsThis is for anyone who can appreciate some good Rock and Roll music. Drinking, fighting and women are the subjects, and is perfect for any fans who love rocking music.
Free Music Review: Phil Lynott rolls over in his grave. Hit: 1 StarsThere are enough other reviews to tell you what to expect from this release. I actually like it, but can only give it one star out of principal. Here's why: two songs sound straight off of Thin Lizzy's "Renegade" album (1981.) Listen for yourself. Play TL's song "Mexican Blood", then play "Marie" from this disc. Sound a little familiar? Next, spin TL's song "Renegade", then play "The Thing About That". Don't they have exactly the same chords and progression? These aren't just three-chord, 1-4-5 songs, either. Only the words and tempos differ to my ears.
Too bad. There are some great songs here. I just find it too much of a coincidence to have two songs on the same cd that sound so much like two songs from another band's album released over a decade earlier.
Free Music Review: This thing ROCKS! Hit: 4 StarsIf I could, I'd give it 4.5 stars -- not perfect, but pretty damn close. These guys don't care about anything except rocking out. The songs are short, funny blasts of desert-fried rock and roll played with passion, guts and a lot of alcohol. Quit messing around and buy it already!
Free Music Review: HOOK 'EM HORNS!!! Hit: 5 StarsWhenever I play this album, which I bought on it's release date a while back, it still makes me feel the same way. I stand up, make that devil/Hook 'Em Horns hand gesture and bang away to the beat.Theres just something about a punk rock band who is unafraid. I guess thats the secret of this band. They don't care. Don't care if you like loud guitars, don't care if you want three solos per song, their there. Don't care if you like the lyrics, which consist of worshiping Satan, being trailor park trash, and rock n roll not as an enigma, but as something you should have known about since Kindergarden. I guess it boils down to this, the album screams in loud rock fashion "hey! grab a guitar and join me, brother!", not "look how much better I am at playing than you". Its just a fun album, like Funhouse by the Stoooges, or Huevos by the Meat Puppets. You know that album you put on at the start of a party, and your friend, who just got a beer out of the fridge yells "Oh Yeah!" ? This is one of those albums.
