Joe D., Joey R. and Brian Priess are still at it after all these years. The three original members of Los Angeles Jugheads Revenge still blend the metal edge into the fast and drivey punk rock onslaught that made this band what they are and have been. I used to see these guys play at a little club (old warehouse, really) in Gardena, California called Velocity Studios. I admired these guys for their original sound, and whirlwind live shows. I still do. Pearly Gates is definitely not, Its Lonely At The Bottom even though it is still full of the same angst and aggression – just a little bit more refined. Faust Part 2 sounds like the band I admired in my youth, and No Time is full of the dreams and hearts that only Joe D. can pull off singing about. Joe Ds deep, throaty voice is still swirling in and out of the bad ass guitar playing of Joey R. Rising, Rising is a trip down memory lane, with its Poison Idea inspired guitar work and authoritative vocalization. Swell is a surf tune with a metal Jugheads crown pitched in for good measure-a cool piece that highlights the talent of this versatile band. Kill Security launched out with the old Fuck Shit Up attitude and didn’t stop. Im glad to see that these guys havent turned rap metal or started singing about growing up or life as teenagers in a rich neighborhood. The guys that think theyre cool are losers anyway Joe D. sings on You never Know-hes right, and Jugheads Revenge hasn’t lost a step and are cool.
