Review : The Destructors 'Helloween' (CD)

  

The Destructors plays straight up garage punk rock with a touch of psychobilly, this Peterborough band started in 1977 up to 1984. They re-formed in 2006, and decided to change the band name to Destructors 666. From there on they have been releasing full-lengths and EPs non-stop, under the UK based label, Rowdy Farago Records. Just in time for Halloween comes this ghoulish full-length CD entitled 'Helloween', 13 eerie tracks that will have you digging graves in no time. Songs about death ceremonies, night creatures, puppeteers, and Elvis? Well, Elvis' rotten corpse that is. They also covered songs from Dead Kennedys, The Ramones, and of course, The Misfits. Besides the album artwork, I also enjoyed scanning through the booklet, it has that 50's horror feel in it. By the way, this album is dedicated to all things that go bump in the night.
