“my boot up your ass” gets my vote. The anthemic title track will have you doing the hand gestures that made ZZ Top commercial radio mainstays in the ‘80’s. Deliberate or not, it is hard not to think of ‘Legs’ when you listen; a simplistic call-to-arms that sounds better after a few beers and at neighbour-annoying noise levels. With its mash-up of glam metal with a nice bit of thrash, or trad-metal, the “street metal” genre surfaces on ‘The Others’. Lovely stuff indeed. The rebellious ‘Never Cared For Snobbery’ picks its nose and flicks a bogie at the teacher. It’s young, dumb, and full of… well, you what follows next. Like so much of the Hardcore Superstar sound, it’s the gang-vocals and the sheer bouncability factor that makes it irresistible. ‘Baboon’ is a misfire, but normal service is resumed with ‘Bring The House Down’, which is basically Slade for a new generation. The album ends with the rather puzzling ‘Goodbye’. Puzzling in the sense that it almost sounds like Hardcore Superstar are actually saying goodbye and can’t be arsed writing a press release. “Goodbye to all of you… nothing left to do…” ‘You Can’t Kill My Rock N’ Roll’ is good fun. It’s dancing like no-one can see you, and singing like no-one can hear you. Or even better, people can see and hear you, but zero fucks are given that they can! Available now.
