MURDER CITY DEVILS
In Name And Blood (Sub Pop/Scratch)

Reviewed by John Sekerka



Nothing like a creepy, B-movie organ riff to get the blood boiling. And blood boiling is what the Murder City Devils are all about. Big beefy garage sounds from the west coast, hammering the final nail on the grunge coffin will no doubt prevail. Tattoos, firewater, sweat and the rawk. There's no denying the power and mastery of this outfit, and the inclusion of Miss Leslie adding the organ grinding missing link to the troupe seals it. I dare ya to sit still to this one. I double dare ya.
