REVIEW FROM OL’ SKOOL RODZ ISSUE #26 MARCH 2008 GIRLFIENDS & SHE-DEVILS : A TRIBUTE TO THE FEMME FATALE Go-Kustom Rekords ; www.go-kustom.com Looking for that special something to pass the time while lamenting a sour relationship? This might be just what you need- 19 rockabilly singles celebrating the darker side of romance. The CD starts off with The Deadcats who sing She-Devil, the story of a “special” gal who comes out after dark to break your heart and tear you apart. This is followed by Big John Bates’ Kitten With A Whip. Big John declares that he has been victimized by a girl with a “Traci Lordes smile.” Next up is a rockin’ little number by The Steubenville Knights who sing about Katy who is, according to them, “twice as cold as a Frigidaire.” Other songs celebrate prison gals (Hot Li’l Hellcat by The Spectres), and evil undead girlfriends (D.A. Sebasstian & The Inner Demons of KsK). The CD is also a great chance to sample a number of artists. Performers include Eddie & The Rockets, Dragstrip Riot, The Earaches, Psycho Charger, The Dead Billys, Vanessa Lowe, Blight Productions, The Bad Things, Billy Dwayne and the Creepers, The Dusty 45’s, The Dirty Birds, Cookie and Swedish Whistler. - Richard Davis
