Music Music Music!
if anything i will be posting album reviews on this blog, a majority being anything from psychobilly to alternative rock music.
here we go eh:
The Meteors(Hymns for the Hellbound)
Note: The Meteors shifted from comic artist Paskal to graphic illustrator D. Vicente to do the album art work
Lineup:
P. Paul Fenech - Vocals/Guitar
Wolfgang Hordemann-Drums
Simon Linden-Double Bass
Paul Fenech had released this monster of an album back in 07, three years after previous work These Evil Things. The album is filled with the usual amount of evil, Satanic Rockabilly that Fenech is known for. The records starts out with a killer track titled Powder Pain Misery, opening with a sinister movie line by the Devil himself. Song deals with Fenech's obsession with the dark arts, and mysticism behind the creation of Psychobilly.
Fourth song is a cover of the Jody Reynolds Iconic tune Endless Sleep. The Only problem is the fact the cover seems out of place on the track list, as the 3 above tracks are hateful high sped greats including My Slaughtering Ways and Phantom Rider.
We Wanna Wreck here is the album classic, and another example of why The Meteors are the kings. A national Anthem for the "I don't give a fuck" attitude Psychobilly music has. The song sounds very Rockabilly, with the lyrics dealing with the introduction of the band members: "a drummer who hits so hard he can knock down fucking walls and hellbound slapping bass player that will shake you to your balls" with the band wanting to play a venue bringing in mutants and many other chaotic elements.
Overall a great album with many memorable tracks including: Lie Down, The Queen of the Wild Wild Wind, We Wanna Wreck Here, and a shitload more.
The Band never seems to loose their edge. Combining Rockabilly with Satanism, a bit of punk and distortion does the band well. 9/10
