This review is from: Getting Serious (Audio CD)

If you've not heard of Deadline, here's a basic overview. Members of leftist skinhead (not an oxymoron) groups joined up with a female vocalist whose hair is redder than a Man Utd. jersey, has a different pair of fishnets and miniskirt for every day of the week and a voice that sends chills up the spine of any listener who appreciates fantastic female vocals. Three albums in find Deadline moving more in a 1980s metal (not Winger or Poison. That is not metal.) direction after the punk brashness of their first two platters, More to It and Back for More. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but it was hard not to listen to it and think "This is what Bad Religion would sound like if Greg Graffin got a sex change." I like both bands so I don't know if this would be a problem for anyone except Dr. Graffin's wife and kids. If you appreciate well-played punk with female vocals that aren't one shrill YEEARRRGGHH! then you could do no better than to pick this up. Don't wait until American audiences have ruined them. As they've toured with Rancid, 'tis possible
