Product Description

Pop culture has absorbed horror rock influences since the genre emerged in the post-punk ashes of the twentieth century. At the dawn of the new millennium, from their home hunting grounds of Philadelphia, The Young Werewolves unleashed their self-titled debut recording. Now, after establishing an underground following and receiving favorable press from publications like Maximum Rock N Roll and the Village Voice, the trio serves up their second sacrifice to all things horror and rock. Cheat The Devil contains another set of thirteen tracks with a few surprises and a special guest star. Mad genius and ace producer Andy Kravitz once again presided over the sessions assuring a mysterious and spooky soundscape. Cult film legend and executive producer, Sid Haig makes an appearance on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde narrating the adapted text of Robert Louis Stevensons classic. A wicked laugh track ensues that youd be hard pressed to find on any other record. The trios reputation continues to grow as a worldwide attraction. A strategic internet presence and niche marketing will accompany the release. Track Listing: 1. Hollywood 2. Mischief Night 3.Devil Dancer Girl 4. Cheatin The Devil 5. Run Away 6. Fire 7. Dr. Jekyll And Mr. Hyde 8. Gala Monster Rally 9. Satans Daughter 10. Touched By A Demon 11. Guns, Guns, Guns 12. Shapeshifter 13. Tattooed Aliens

5.0 out of 5 stars Degenerate, Filthy and Base - and those are its GOOD Points, May 20, 2010
By Kenaz Filan (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Cheat The Devil (Audio CD)
*Cheat the Devil,* the latest from Philadelphia's Young Werewolves, is Vincent Price in a remake of *Texas Chainsaw Massacre.* No, scratch that. It's Vincent Price driving down Skid Row in a stolen car with Boris Karloff riding shotgun and Hunter S. Thompson in the backseat huffing ether with bikini-wearing Siamese triplets. It's got the campy good fun you've come to associate with Psychobilly and Deathrock, combined with a bracing punk edge.

Guitarist Nick Falcon obviously cut his fangs on *Los Angeles* and *Wild Gift.* He's got Billy Zoom's driving clunky power chords down pat, with a side helping of surf music. On "Run Away" he gives us a stinging lead that's dirtier than *The Aristocrats: The Director's Cut.* On the closing track, he joins in a spiky lockstep with the drum and bass combo of Jonny Wolf and Dana Kain while on the secret final cut (which will remain a secret) he does things to Duran Duran that are still illegal in many states.

Although they are a humble trio, the Young Werewolves can howl in harmony. The vocal interplay between Dana K. and packmates Falcon and Wolf at times recalls Kate Pierson and Fred Schneider of the B-52s. At other times it brings to mind Eileen Wuornos and Charles Manson, complete with Wolf as Jeffrey Dahmer on percussion. (Don't ask where he got that drumset). "Gala Monster Rally" may be tongue-in-cheek ...but whose tongue is it? "Guns, Guns, Guns" is somewhere between the Stray Cats and a drug-addled Elvis clutching his pistol and staring intently at the television. Meanwhile, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" features opening narration from Sid "Captain Spaulding" Haig, who shows why he is the scariest Armenian this side of the Kardashian sisters.

This is rock the way it used to be. It's as if the Young Werewolves dug up the corpse of rock and roll, put a cigarette in its mouth and a beer in its hands, then propped it up on a stool and took pictures. In fact it's exactly like that. And if that isn't worth $12 I don't know what is. Buy it now before the authorities arrive.
