I heard "Psychotic Reaction" off of the new Cramps live album last week. Pretty impressive. It was much better sounding than some of the older stuff (not to say that the old stuff was not good, just empty sounding). Has anyone heard the entire album and care to review it? Side note : I got a copy of "Off the Bone", which is kind of a history of the Cramps with a really good 3-D cover (glasses included). The cover is worth the price, and the record is a must for psychobilly fans. David

Another Cramps fan out here is interested in hearing a review of their new album... or any of their other albums, for that matter. I've heard "Off the Bone" (with the 3D glasses) and especially liked "Garbage Man", "New Kind of Kick", and their abusive cover of "Surfin' Bird". "Gravest Hits" didn't appeal to me so much, but they surely have another album's worth in them, yes? Or are they fizzling out? -michael
