The Necessary Evils - Spider Fingers (1997)


Noisy, scuzzy, psychedelic garage punk. The band's savage performance, vocalist Steve Pallow's raw howl, a bit of space-age synth, and lines like "pretty white girl, it's okay to die" manage to achieve the nigh impossible feat of making blues-based rock exciting, unpredictable, and even a bit frightening.

Track listing:
1. Flames o' Heat
2. Pretty White Girl on a Black Death Train
3. Lost My Baby
4. Motorwitch
5. William
6. Tragedy
7. Back-Stabber
8. The Deceiver
9. Alone and Dead
10. Rock 'n Roll
11. Skin Ripper
12. State of Confusion

Dead drunk

  1. Hi DS,
    The link on this and the Cheater Slicks "Whisky" has expired. Is it possible to have updated links on these two? Thank you for posting all the garage rock, btw.
