In my opinion the best DEMENTED ARE GO album is (together with Mad Sin's "Sweet and Innocent? LOUD AND DIRTY!" ) one of the best albums ever made in Psychobilly: In sickness and in health. This album contains classics such as Pervy in the park, Born on a busted Hymen, Be bop a lula (open your legs, more! more! more! say be bop alula.... LOL), Frenzied Beat, Pickled and preserved, Transvestite blues. This album is really the one every one should hear as their first psychobilly album. Released in 86, they were at the foundations of this speed/uptempo rockabilly music. No one ever took em serious in their early years. They were too soft for punks, too mellow for hard rockers, and way too vulgar for any other form of music... But they never gave up, and now they lead a whole scene... Musically it's not that technical and WOW!, but man, it's the most fun music ever made!
And then, the other psychobilly album that everyone should hear is Mad Sin's "Sweet and innocent? LOUD AND DIRTY!". The album just goes by like a train. Every single song is magnificent rocker, and the music here is way more than 3 chords... Just listen to the stand-up bass on this album, it makes Lee Rocker (Stray Cats) jealous. The samples they use are so wellplaced and timed that every otherband that uses samples (in rock that is!) should take lessons from El Köfte. (vocals and samples in Mad Sin). The guitars are excellent and the drums really get you goin... Unfortunately the best lyrics are the ones in german, so most people on the board here wouldn't get them. Like the song: Costa del Hell. Search for them lyrics if you understand german! Really, they're hilarious!!
Anyway, gotta go now. Maybe Ill be back later. Since FINALLY! people start having interest in the most fun musicgenre there is... this forum has become attractive to me again. Thanx Bonnie,
great job!!
