REVEREND HORTON HEAT – The Full Custom Gospel Sounds Of (Sub Pop Reissue) – LP – Coke-Bottle Clear Vinyl

Description

LP – Limited Edition Sub Pop Reissue on Coke-Bottle ClearVinyl.

Sub Pop is excitedly, finally repressing vinyl versions of three scorching 90s psychobilly classics by Reverend Horton Heat. All three have been out of print on vinyl since
the mid-90s, with original pressings going for considerable amounts at the ol junk shop. The bands 1990 debut, Smoke em If You Got em, made quite the first impression with frantic stand-up bass, fiery guitar playing, and the Revs wild howls stirring up a volatile cocktail of 50s rockabilly, punk energy, and sly humor.AllMusic said of the album it’s all sleaze, it’s all wrong, and it’s all so very, very right, while, on encountering the hit single Psychobilly Freakout Beavis and Butthead raved This dude is weird! Yeah, yeah, hes like our kind of people. 1993s The Full Custom Gospel Sounds of stepped things up a bit, with fuller production by fellow Texan Gibby Haynes of the Butthole Surfers. In addition to the hilarious Bales of Cocaine, Full Custom features the furious 400 Bucks, the atmospheric creeper The Devils Chasing Me, and Wiggle Stick. On seeing the video for the latter, Beavis declared, accurately, Yes! This guy RULES! while Butthead agreed, Yeah this guy ROCKS!

ROCKS!! 1994s Liquor in the Front gets even more aggressive – heavy, even – sonically, with production by Ministrys Al Jourgensen and the high-velocity opening pairing of the high-velocity instrumental Big Sky and the blistering lament Baddest of the Bad. The highest-selling of the Revs first three albums, Liquor was originally co released with Interscope Records, with the album hitting #18 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and the single One Time for Me hitting #40 on the Modern Rock chart. In the words of AllMusic, for sheer crank, nothing in his catalog can touch it.
