MY LIFE WITH THE THRILL KILL KULT:
Sinister Whisperz: CD
I’ll admit it, I’ve always harbored a fondness for Thrill Kill Kult’s demonic disco, and there’s nothing here to sully said fondness. This CD of stuff from their years on Wax Trax consists of remixed versions of twelve of their more popular tunes from those years—”And This Is What the Devil Does,” “The Days of Swine and Roses,” “A Daisy Chain for Satan,” and so on—and a heretofore unreleased track, “Satana Rising.” While their blasphemous aspirations were apparently never more than ploys to garner a little extra attention, it’s still fun as hell to slip this in the car stereo of your fave Jesus freak friend and see how long it takes for them to realize their bopping in their seat and singing the phrases “Kooler than Jesus” and “Christian Zombie Vampires” at the top of their lungs. That alone is worth the price of admission. –Jimmy Alvarado (rustblade.com)
