Nekromantix: Dead Girls Don’t Cry

Nekromantix: Dead Girls Don’t Cry
Label: Hellcat
Release Date: 2004
Review Date: 2004

It’s return of the psychobilly band that croons instead of just yelling. Dead Girls Don’t Cry is the follow up to the very excellent Return of the Loving Dead. The songs were written in a very short period of time in the studio, and sometimes it shows. Perhaps not something you’d want to brag about in your publicity. The fact that they can still turn out some good songs quickly is a testament to how tight and talented they are. There are some killer tracks on here, such as the infectious “Moon Chaser,” “Ghoulina” “Struck by a Wrecking Ball,” and “Dead By Dawn.” A sense of humor (Where Do Monsters Go?) is always a good thing, especially since most psychobilly bands can’t seem to get along for more than 2 records. These guys have been together for something like seven releases. The album cover has a well executed reference to Nosferatu. Fast and Furious. Fun!
