The Graves Brothers Deluxe - Light (Good Forks Records)

Everyone likes to lump bands into neat categories, and I'm no different. However, I'd like to offer a new category that the Graves Brothers Deluxe have personally created....Munster Rock! This band is straight out eerie, conjuring up dark images with titles such as "The White Devil's Death Song". Add to that menacing vocals, screeching feedback, lurid avent garde jazz explorations, and a completely frantic version of the Supreme's classic "Keep Me Hangin' On" and you??ll understand my reasoning. These songs would be the perfect accompaniment to a David Lynch score. It is no surprise lead man Stoo Odom is a New Orleans native, and Bela Lugosi passed on his birthday. The Monster Mash has been retooled and somewhere Herman Munster is shaking the foundation. There is no Light, only darkness. - Brad LaVarnway
