Cramps and the
Go-Go’s with a shade of their own personality. Hayley And The Crushers reverberate with a nostalgic surf-fuzz, fully on display from the get-go. Note the retro “Jacaranda” which opens the set, and begins a raw execution of precision rock music with the obvious appeal to a wide audience base. The bouncy track sets the scene perfectly, with the injection of head nodding, foot tapping reverberations.
The sullen beat of the dramatically paced “Angelyne” keeps everything within the right scope. The lyrics define a tongue-in-cheek outlook of modern society creating a rollicking tale which sets the scene for “Church Of Flag”. The latest single, and standout piece sees the outfit open up the musical throttle that little bit more, and soar with a sledgehammer impact. With a somewhat aspect of eighties metal entwined within the track, it becomes an exciting listening experience.
