Crud, Sluts and Wah-Wah, October 31, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Horror Stories (Audio CD)
The only problem with this CD is that people do not get what they expect in a Dwarves record. The tight chord changes and hardcore lyrics of Blood Guts; Lucifer's Crank were not in place yet on this 1986 release.What you do have here is first-rate sixties garage sludge with covers of The Calico Wall, Avengers (the 60s Avengers) and Larry & the Blue Notes-- along with their own howling freak-outs. If you're looking for hardcore, buy one of the later releases. But, if you're looking for one of the original releases that has helped to spawn the current garage swamp sound, check this out...

Sixties Revival, June 26, 2005
This review is from: Horror Stories (Audio CD)
The Dwarves are taking it back to the roots of punk rock, sixties garage! Some great covers of sixties garage favorites as only the Dwarves can do it. If you do not like this album then you are just denying the major influence that the sixties garage greats had on punk rock music. I especially enjoy the cover of Larry and The Blue Notes "In and Out", masterfully done in a modern punk vein. Check out the compilation "ear piercing punk" for more great sixties garage punk losers, or any "back form the grave" comp.

It seems that most bands first full length releases just have more material. the only other release of theres to come close is "Blood Guts and Pu$$y".

A Complete Waste of Time and Money, August 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Horror Stories (Audio CD)
By far the worst album I have heard from the dwarves. Sugarfix, Thank Heaven for Little Girls, and the Dwarves are Young and Good Looking are just miles ahead of this one. I'm a major dwarves fan, but I couldnt even bring myself to listen to this one all the way through...
