On Rock 'n Roll Murder rockabilly riffs morph into metal on "Lowdown," then careen into walls of Sex Pistol's style punk on "All I Wanna Do." Frantic Frank DeBlase and crew veer off into swing territory, complete with gorgeous horn arrangements, on "Sugar Daddy," while DeBlase's voice steers through the band's varied musical landscape like a teenager on a joy ride. He screams like Bon Scott one moment and croons like Elvis the next on the western ballad, "Trail of Tears." There's a story in the album's diversity that gives the listener the feeling this band has done some serious living and some serious playing. DeBlase finds beauty in desperation on hard-luck ballads like "Mark of the Squealer," and "Redemption Blues," where Sunday night becomes a time of serious reckoning.
