THE GRUESOMES - Serves You Right
If you're not in the mood... rely on the Reverend who never goes wrong.
With their exaggerated pompadours and their trashy morbidity, the Gruesomes were for Canada what the Gravedigger V were for the Californian garage scene: subtly debauched teenagers attracted to an unhealthy obsession with a sixties filth imaginary that they would never renounce, even as the entire neogarage scene collapsed around them. Gruesomology is therefore primarily a tribute to their consistency but also provides a comprehensive snapshot of their historical period, from their participation in It Came from Canada to Live in Hell! in 1989, stuff that each of you should make sure to have and, above all, understand.
They were the technical zero.
Pure teen exuberance drowned in a visceral love for the most vehement garage punk and the most battered R 'n B.
They were the passion that became a living thing, grabbing you by the throat.
