专辑介绍

by David Cleary

The Cramps waited four years after their top-notch A Date with Elvis before releasing their next studio album. The result is, unfortunately, one of the weakest platters in their canon. Most all the songs here follow the same rockabilly-based formula of previous releases; unfortunately, much of the group's usual fire is missing. Too many of the selections (such as &Daisys Up Your Butterfly,& &Everything Goes,& &All Women Are Bad,& and a cover of &Muleskinner Blues&) are cast in a moderate jogging tempo, and the instrumental playing shows minimal song-to-song contrast, lacking the manic craziness of their best work. Lux Interior's vocals are comparatively reserved (though there are some exceptions, such as the snarling cover of &Shortnin' Bread&) and are often somewhat submerged in the sound mix. Lyrics, too, are a bit tame by Cramps standards, the major exception being &Mama Oo Pow Pow,& which has gleefully tacky verses about spanking and discipline that rival their most tasteless. &God Damned Rock 'N' Roll& is, for all practical purposes, a middling parody of Bob Seger's &Old Time Rock and Roll.& The biggest surprise is the atypically soaring vocal on the better-than-average song &Journey to the Center of a Girl.& This album is not terrible by any means, but it's not an essential listen, either; in a nutshell, the biggest problem with Stay Sick! is that it's not sick enough.
