The Scariest Band in the World

In the beginning, there was rockabilly. And it was good. It may not have been complicated in style but it was energetic and the perfect accompaniment for a little hell raising.

What if the band sounded like it had been ... raised from hell? It may sound like the darkest surf music in the world, a bass so low it sounded like the depths below. Add in lyrics inspired by horror and crime films, then stir until stiff. Then we would call it... voodoobilly.

Maybe they didn't reinvent the wheel. Maybe they didn't create a new style. I've yet to hear any other band sound like Deadbolt. Maybe you will think that's a good thing.

But if you tell them they aren't the scariest band in the world... well, there's no maybe about the butt-whuppin' they'll lay down on ya...
