Rocket from the Crypt - Live from Camp X-Ray

I did actually write this out last night on my phone while in bed (and I can tell you that was a pain in the ass), then I had problems sending it, and I reset my phone, and then the fucker was gone. Just gone.

But, I will recall as much as I can, and just write again...



So, I have had this record for some time, close to 3 months probably, but I have not posted it because I actually bought it for my Wife. My Wife doesn't actually collect records, but in an effort to involve her, I bought her this LP. Now, she supports my habit as much as she can, she doesn't go off her head when I spend a little more than I probably should, in fact she supports me in everything that I do ever. That's just how fucking awesome she is.

But then I thought "Fuck it!" She isn't ever going to chill in the study, sit in the easy chair, drop the needle on this and listen to it, and I listen to it at least once a week, and it still blows me away every time! So here it is, in all it's glory: Rocket From The Crypt's "Live from Camp X-Ray".



I don't have a story to go with this one like I normally do. To be honest, I really missed the boat on this band, and only got into them after they broke up, and even then I only own this LP of theirs. I just can't get behind the others as much as I want to.



I Don't know how I missed this for so long though. With lyrics like "So peel back those dirty sheets/let's see that wet spot now", and the horns. I must have been a deadset moron...



The artwork of this record & the plain Black vinyl just capture the mood.

I'm fucking into it.
