THE REAL HEROES, Greetings From Russia
FROM RUSSIA, WITH LOVE: Formed in the wake of the Duckhills and Bongo Hate, Room 710/Parish/Emo's rockers the Real Heroes return with their first LP since late 2000's self-titled debut. It was worth the wait.
GOLDFINGER: Greetings features a pair of Real Heroes cuts redone to a glossy metallic sheen: glamtastic opener "Elise, Elise" and frenetically paced "Me Is the Drug."
OCTOPUSSY: Overall as sexually charged as any Maxim pictorial, Greetings packs extra leer on the lubricious "The French Song" and the extremely Bolanish "Move That Strut," on which singer Save Hotchkiss announces, "I've got designs on the front of your pants."
CD release 10pm tonight (Thursday) at the Parish with the Stepbrothers and DJ Linda.
