"On A Rope" by Rocket From The Crypt

Rocket From The Crypt love their fans...this comes in a triple cd format, all costing 99p, all with pictures of big cats on them and all fitting into a fold-out box. Trainspotters of the world unite.

Each cd has different tracks - the versions of "On A Rope" all different (but all the same huge rockabilly stomp) - the b-sides consisting of Mark Radcliffe session tracks and covers of the band's favourite songs.

Value aside, there is nothing unexpected here: just what Rocket From The Crypt live for and do best. Fast, frantic, US post-grunge rock'n'roll in matching sequinned bowling shirts.

Rating: 8/10
