They’re Coming To Get You Barbara, Gig Review. Studio 2, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

A runaway train hurtling along the track, its metal shell gleaming in the radiant sunlight and with the band members from Metallica flying above in a stolen helicopter but somehow managing to play their greatest hits as in homage to the train’s pursuit has more chance of developing a sluggish demeanour than you could ever slow down They’re Coming To Get You Barbara once they have warmed up. Not that the band need much time but it gives the train a deluded self- confidence that nothing can match that type of speeding Metal.

They’re Coming To Get You Barbara, Dead Reckoning. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

There is nothing better than being on board a powerful juggernaut or expensively made motorbike which is haring along the American interstate, the speed getting faster as each mile zips by till finally the only way to come to a grinding halt is to make sure you put everything into the brake, the deep gauging and burning impression left by the tires in the asphalt an indication of just how great the ride was. Listening to Liverpool’s They’re Coming To Get You Barbara’s set of new songs from the E.P. Dead Reckoning is like being on that motorbike but somehow much more enjoyable.
