Green Moon Sparks
Rebel With A Curse
|
Hailing from the ancient city of Padova in
Northern Italy, the Green Moon Sparks take a welcome stance: first and
foremost, psychobilly should be fun. The self-mocking slogan 'stronzo band'
amplifies this cheerful approach. Yet make no bones about their knack for
spawning a wide range of rockin' goods. From hillbilly origins to early punk
and beyond, this foursome taps into decades of subterranean splendor. Meanwhile
their psycho brew is flavor-enhanced by Toy Dolls tomfoolery plus Surf Rats and
Scum Rats strut.
The opening salvo of debut album 'Rebel With A
Curse' is aptly baptized 'Rattle Brain'. The tone is set by the double bass
rattle and howls from grimy vocal pipes, fit to deliver the vinegar over
two-way guitar action. Sparks fly in twelve tuneful tracks, such as A
Rockabilly Stole My Bike. Even more striking are reverberant twists on
spaghetti westerns in a one-horse town where mariachi mooncalfs blow off steam
for amphetamine. In the dead silence after the grand finale, one realizes why
the rebel is cursed: this mutant rock & roll is far too addictive.
