Spiderbait delivers excellent power chord rock with hint of punk! For those of you who did't like the "Black Betty" cover, what did you want? An exact copy of the original? Go back to your classic rock stations and stay away rating 21st century bands. These guys are for real!

4.0 out of 5 stars Spiderbait grinds on, November 6, 2004

I first saw Spiderbait live in a smoky University hall in Melbourne in early 1995. Around that time they personified the funky, raw Melbourne alternative rock scene. Playing live, they leave you in a trance coloured by beat-infested, heavy riff-perpetuated, mosh-inspired, funked-out bliss. After several albums of experimenting with a wider range of genres, they have returned to their earlier roots.
Whether it's Janet's melodic power-pop, Whit's virtuoso rhythm guitar (as a guitar player myself, I remain convinced to this day that he is THE best rythm guitarist alive) or Kram's metal/acid/beat-driven chanting amongst tight drum fills and an almost religious affection for playing in the off-beat, this is an album that re-captures the raw energy of their live shows.
Check it out. Definately worth a listen. Play it loud.

This is my first introduction to Spiderbait, and I am completely sold! This is a great album. Although most people didn't like their cover version of Leadbelly's Black Betty, I loved it. It's as raw and as mean as Lead's own. I recommend this one to anyone who loves a good time!
