CRASH STREET KIDS
"Sweet Creatures" (Vanity Music Group; 2011)
Reviewed by Jeff Rogers
Fans of The Strokes, Alice Cooper, David
Bowie, T. Rex, Mott the Hoople, Slade, Sweet, Kiss, and Silverhead will love
Crash Street Kids. They've got a punk sound on a few songs but put in some glam
rock on others and then combine it with bar music to make it into a great
listening experience.
One of things I love about this band is that they don't reinvent those styles of
music mentioned but they do breathe new life into that genre. Solid beats and
tasty guitar solos are all the rage with Crash Street Kids. I'm a fan of piano
keys and when they get pounded on through a whole song it takes me back to the
days when music was created and not just manufactured.
Crash Street Kids would be great party music as well because it’s the kind of
stuff that would save any lame party. No DJ required just some Hi-Fi, Lays
Potato Chips and cold RC Cola.
Crash Street Kids: Ryan McKay - Vocals, Guitars; A.D. Adams – Drums; Ricky
Serrano – Guitars; Deuce - Bass, Vocals.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
