[.ca] Space Heater



You haven't heard rockabilly til you've heard this:
To put it simple the Rev has his stuff together, if you can catch him live do it. Baby I'm Drunk and Texas Rock-a-billy Rebel make me want to cry. Screw all those techno, pretty boy Cd's get this and play it at your next get together. The Rev is preachin' to all of us that need some REAL ROCK in our hearts. Buy it and praise the Lord!


One Of His Best:
I really like the sound of this record. It breaks a bit of a mold for the Rev. and his band. "Lie Detector" should be cranked up as loud as possible.


I've Never Heard Anything Like This:
This album right here is amazing. Every song sounds different from the last one. Though all of the songs are great, my two favorites are "Jimbo Song" and "Lie Detector". Reverend Horton Heat is amazing and unique from anything else out there. I reccomend checking this out if you are looking for something new that will stand out in your music collection.


Another album worthy of praise:
While not quite on par with some of the other donations by the Reverend, Space Heater has proven itself to me as a worthy purchase. Being a RHH fan I do harbor a little favoritism though. Some have complained that the sound keeps changing, but I can still hear a lot of the Reverend's roots in this stuff. Besides, I tend to like it when a band can bend their sound around without betraying the core sound. I expect a harder edge from these guys and I feel that most of the tracks without it should be considered the departure from the norm. They are psychobilly after all. Even many of their slower, mellow tracks are done quite well, so I can't complain much at all. Some of my best picks of Space Heater would have to be the humorous Couch Surfin', the instrumentals of Pride of San Jacinto and The Prophet Stomp, and the harder edge tracks such as Lie Detector, Jimbo Song, Goin' Manic and Cinco De Mayo. I won't waste any more of your time with details. Just suffice to say the whole disc is 'listenable' (especially for RHH fans) and that is hard to come by in many CDs today. If you are a fan of Reverend this selection should not disappoint. While it may not be their best work, I have heard worse from bands with more commercial success. If this be your first sermon from The Reverend, you should have a taste for music with a little hard edge and some Tex-Mex-Rock & Roll dashed in to taste.


All praise to the Reverend..:
Lots of lukewarm comments about this album I see, yes yes its not their best ever album but this has some awesome rockin' tunes. If you're a RHH fan, theres no excuse for not buying this so go right ahead and do it now you lazy SOB...
