THE SCREAMING BLUE MESSIAHS - Bikini Red (Re-Post)
A welcome return for Bikini Red, the
second album by one of Britain's most underrated bands ever The
Screaming Blue Messiahs. Why their albums haven't been re-packaged
and re-released with bonus tracks by some record company is beyond
me. If you didn't grab this first time around, here's another
chance, if you've not heard The Screaming Blue Messiahs, now's yer
chance. What can I say about the Messiahs that I've said before; "Pedal
to the metal, full throttle, high octane rock’n’roll, the drive
of yer life / Pure, ferocious, frantic and fun, with a dark edge /
A mutant Rock’n’Roll hybrid of Punk, Rhythm and Blues and
Rockabilly. Howling and hollered vocals, guitars chopping and
slashing with destructive abandon over the thumping, threading bass
and machine gun attack drums / 20+ years later they still sounds
fresh as the smell of recently burned rubber on tarmac //!"
