Dirty white trash punk rock... Well, these Dutch guys from
Eindhoven aren't entirely white but still this is just as boring as it would
have been if they would have been caucasians in suites. Vulgar and offensive
punk lyrics and the mandatory sleazy hardrock influences aren't exactly what
you would want to play for your grandmother but this isn't exactly something
that I enjoy that much either. Eventually most punk rockers grow up but until
then we have to live with their boring traditional lyrics. The Spades are far
from being bad musicians and the music of this album would certainly fit in
well at a party where there is lots of alcohol present but unfortunately the
raw vocals, the dirty rock sound and the uninspiring monotonous song
structures lack the kind of excitement that I need to hear from a band if I am
to find them the least bit interesting. By the way, one of the songs start out
with the line "this is a song about how you kill your woman and get away with
it". Ironically, this is one of the best songs of the album and actually
sounds a little (I mean a little!) AC/DC-like. Not bad but not my cup of tea
either. Controversial? Well, maybe. Interesting? Not
really...
