Flying Bomb X-mas 7"

I guess having this review done closer to Christmas might have been better, but hey lay off. First up, The Dirtys, and regardless of what Demangis says about the Epileptix, I still say they're the best punk band in Michigan (with the exception of those I'm friends with of course). They rip on "Cocaine X-Mas," a song with as much balls and punk as the law will allow. Up next is Bantam Rooster doing "Let's Just Fuck for X-Mas." Well I have one question, your place or mine Tommy? Wink, lick. Anyways a great song from these two maniacs, with a lil help from Jim Diamond. Last, but not least, comes The Electric Six (formerly The Wildbunch), with "Christmas Xorcism (ho ho ho)," a weird ditty which features mostly organs which float around like a ghost, possibly the effect they were looking for. A fine addition to anyone's library, even if it is after X-Mas. (Flying Bomb)
