(record review)ROCKER ARMS-“Leaving Jersey Shore”

Dear fiends and fiendettes, it is time for some psychobilly mixed with punk on the pages of this webzine. Rocker Arms from Holland are veterans of the scene being formed in 1999. and playing with some lineup changes until now. This is their new record which I listened and reviewed for this webzine.

The record contains seven songs of psychobilly mayhem with a lot of punk influences thrown in the song structures for good measure. “Joey” is a melodic song leaning heavily on punky riffs, psychobilly guitar work and nice melodic vocal lines. “Closer to me” is a more of a classic psychobilly song again with nice melodic chorus and some surf influences thrown in. “Free Beer 4 All” also owes more to the band˙s psychobilly roots than to punkrock but it is a very heavy sounding song nonetheless. “Don`t tell me” is a hymn to freedom, not living caged by boundaries and being truely free of conformism. “Dressed in red” starts as a horror psychobilly song with whispered word, thunder and has that old school black and white horror movie vibe. It is for me maybe the best song on this record. “Punk Nr” is just what the title says pure blood punkabilly song, fast and strong instrumental. “28” closes the record in the energetic fast and wrecking psycho style. This is a great record so if you are a fan of such music have a grab on this one!

8,5/10
