Reverend Horton Heat, The - Smoke Em If You Got Em
The band’s 1990 debut, Smoke ‘em If You Got ‘em, made quite the first impression with frantic stand-up bass, fiery guitar playing, and the Rev’s wild howls stirring up a volatile cocktail of ‘50s rockabilly, punk energy, and sly humor. AllMusic said of the album “it's all sleaze, it's all wrong, and it's all so very, very right,” while, on encountering the hit single “Psychobilly Freakout” Beavis and Butthead raved “This dude is weird!” “Yeah, yeah, he’s like… our kind of people.”
