<\/a>This year marks the 30th<\/sup> Anniversary of Supersuckers and Eddie Spaghetti and Co are celebrating with album number 12 \u201cSuck it\u201d.The ‘suckers have mutated again, now featuring the 6 strings of Marty Chandler and tub-thumping of Chris Von Streicher but are they are still the self-proclaimed Greatest Rock n\u2019 Roll Band in the World?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
While the last album, \u201cHoldin\u2019 The Bag\u201d dug deep into the country side of the band, \u201cSuck It\u201d is total rock & roll (but with a country flavour).\u00a0 Full on 70’s rocker \u201cAll The Time\u201d kicks things off in classic (latter-year) Supersuckers style, while \u201cThe History of Rock & Roll\u201d slows it down a little and takes the coolest bits of Guns & Roses and serves it up raw and dirty, with Eddie reminding us of all the greatest bands in the world, while being sure to point out that he’s still top of the pile. One thing that immediately strikes me is that Eddie’s vocals sound a little gruffer than on previous albums, maybe a little more attitude-y and balls to the wall, which is cool in a Motorhead kind of way. \u201cDead Inside\u201d feels more like a traditional ‘Suckers tune, \u201cBreaking My Balls\u201d takes you to the land of Nashville Pussy and finally side one closer \u201cWorst Thing Ever\u201d slows things right down with a touch of grunge.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Side two screams into action with the full-on \u201cWhat’s Up With This Mother Mother Fucking Thing\u201d, taking you right back to the Rick Sims era, then immediately takes a left turn in to classic country Supersuckers land with \u201cCold Wet Wind\u201d. \u201cTil I Die\u201d is a classic boogie stomper all about jerking off and \u201c Private Parking Lot\u201d is another Faces-ish banger delivered with classic ‘Suckers style.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All too soon, ZZ Top tune \u201cBeer Drinkers & Hell Raisers\u201d comes along to close side two with a full pint salute, reminding us that it’s not only the spirit of rock n roll running through their veins of Supersuckers.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As Eddie says in the press blurb, “We’ve finally become the band that we’ve always threatened to be.”\u00a0 He may be right….. Supersuckers remain (one of) the Greatest Rock n\u2019 Roll Band in the World !!!<\/p>\n
