Hollywood
Stunts
"Stunts" perspective listener is advised to proceed with safety goggles and flame retardant pantaloons. (Scary) Cemetery opens the album in the key of demonic blues punk, with much fuzz, exploding reverb, and a boogie-woogie-man chorus. Fire & Grits is one-half hillbilly and one-half punk, in the spirit of The Cramps, with added cowbell and a breakdown inspired from Juicy Jays club banger "Fiyayaya Weed". Doctors Note deploys a glam-rock-waltz set to the tune of a day spent in bed after a night sipping cough syrup, while Toe-to-Toe momentarily gets you back on your feet with a cave stomp ode to fighting and fornication. Buzzsaw guitars? Check. Hippie percussion? Check. Songs about cleavage put to Macgyveresque ends on Treasure Chest, an angry eunuch on Hater (by Nature), and a Nazi film industry on Sieg Hollywood keep their tongues firmly planted in cheek, but are captured here with the primal ardor that holds true to the bands wildly unhinged live act.
