ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT
Merging punk rock with a horn section, this influential San Diego band celebrates wild rock & roll of all eras.
Pledging to never play a venue with a stage, singer/guitarist John Reis formed San Diego's
Rocket from the Crypt in the summer of 1990 after becoming disillusioned with
his then-current hardcore punk band, Pitchfork. Bassist Petey X, guitarist N.D.,
drummer Sean, and backing vocalist Elaina joined the band's initial lineup,
and Rocket from the Crypt released Paint as a Fragrance in 1991

RECORD NEAR MINT (please, read above description)
SLEEVE NEAR MINT (please, see pictures and read above description)
This record lurches through ten solid songs, which, though as aggressive as punk's roots,
offer much more than your typical power-chord mosh pit anthems. John "Speedo" Reis
stuns with his soulful, Sammy Davis, Jr.-meets-Eddie Cochran lead vocals, while
backing vocalist Elaina adds rich harmony. In addition to more immediate punk scorchers,
Rocket From The Crypt also explores other musical terrain; the band gears up with
rockabilly-laden guitar riffs, which are then unleashed
with some dissonant guitar harmonies and breakneck piano...(AllMusic)
