The only previous release from the snotty Soda Poppers was the Crimbo single until now that is… Ladies and gentlemen, put on your creepers, tease your hair up, and smudge on some guyliner because the Soda Poppers , Frida The Bleeder, Silent Sonia, Sticky Vikki on the big organ and Johny skullknuckles are here to entertain you all with their brand of sleazy punk rock n fuckin Roll!
Just turn it up, pour yerself a mocktail and let’s dance. Led by Freida The Bleeder, you’re in for a rockin’ time as they literally kick off with ‘Livin Doll’ no not the Cliff classic. This one’s got some stripped-back distorted guitars and a chunk of melody that is only enhanced through some poppers and Thunderbird wine. But wait it bleeds into a suitably sleazy romp through Bowie’s classic ‘Suffragette City’ and they nail it. Was there any doubt? Of course not.
The EP then put their collective creepers through their paces as they pogo through the potty-mouthed ‘Bad Girls Go To Hell’. What a banger this one is with a stinking attitude and some stellar guitar riffage, it’s all killer, zero filler. Catch your breath with a sharp intake because next up is a punked-up take on the classic pop of ‘I Think We’re Alone Now’. It’s pure Betty Blowtorch waving a middle digit in the air and having fun tearing up the pop of yesteryear and hocking a big fat snotty gob on its carcass. Nice.
‘The Only Way Is All The Way’ is a sleazy six-string mid-tempo fist-pumping slice of loud sleazy rock. The nonchalant breakdown is right on the money and time for Johny to show he can slap the four string as well.
Which takes us to the limit of this EP with just enough time for ‘FTW’ with its laid back tempo as the Soda Poppers are through messing about making friends and just torch the EP before heading off into the distance. Another great trip into the twisted Rock n Roll world of Skullknuckles and co, but wait, what’s this, a hidden track? Oh, keep that for the cool kids who pick up a copy of this most excellent EP. Just buy it.
