Buxom, the vocals in that tune remind me of Morrisey for some reason.

I really dig this tune:

There was a Canadian Rockabilly band about 25 or so years ago that were just great and put on an incredible live show.They were called The Razorbacks and they were all over the stage while they played,especially the double bass player,he would actually lay the bass on its side and stand up on the other side while he played incredible bass runs on it.

Jim "Reverend Horton Heat" Heath - possibly the godfather of modern rockabilly and psychobilly.

I was invited to see him late last year. I didn't have a ride into DC, however.

Deadbolt are a little to the left of psychobilly with a little surf influence thrown in for good measure...

Creative. And Fender can't build guitars to attract this market?? Arth1 was of a different point of view but I still feel the Perfomer, with two HB's and a different headstock, would be unique enough to attract an avant garde band. Fender ought to go out, find an up and coming band and make them an offer they can't refuse...like they did with the Beach Boys and the early Ventures [before Hagstrom lured them away].

They have a Jimi Hendrix cover, though it's Green Haze.
