Press Reviews ³Slow jock hunk-rock I am. Gloating hippy-crite Sam I Am. Mommy bought me these baggy pants, I hope I¹m seen at skateboard ramp.² The lyrics become even more smart to the pissed off nature of Blanche Davidian in their first release, ³Attack of The Killer². This disc is a product of the Phoenix streets. The songwriting is truly intelligent and serious as a heart attack. The members of Blanche Davidian have created something in their own recording studio, Sonar Digital, that will turn rock-n-rollers on their ear and have the punk rockers quit their bands. With titles like ³Robotussin², ³A Genitalia Ballot², ³Oedipal Complexions² and ³Ben Wa Beets², singer Jamie Monistat VII brings his John Lydon/Jello Biafra style backed with massive guitar sounds and an acceptional rhythm section to the top of the musical food chain here in the Valley. The songs seem to convey a torment of sorts. Angry about society, disillusioned about one¹s purpose here on earth and wanting to ³get back² musically to those who have done wrong to them, are wrapped in a guitar-based, rock disc. The tracks are written for originality. That¹s what you¹ll get. They haven¹t been heard before. No pop-rock, pop-punk mediocrity, just pure rock-n-roll on a pedestal worthy of greatness. -Jason Garcia -New Times/Phoenix ------------------------------------------------- Blanche Davidian ‘Attack of the Killer’ Swagger is practically a lost art in rock ’n’ roll, but Blanche Davidian have it in spades with their campy showmanship, and they have the musical chops to back it up. Singer Jamie Monistat VII howls wildly and unintelligibly over guitarist Mike Hawk's tasty riffing (and exquisite solos), and the band rocks with abandon on humorously titled tunes to match the group's (and the lead singer's) name. Like a sucker punch to the gut, their garage-cum-glam music leaves you breathless. A- -Thomas Bond -Get Out/Phoenix ------------------------------------------------- Their puns kill me. Every title has some sorta play on words, but when they get down to rock, they get down to business. BD's driving beats, oodling guitars, persistent tambourine, and heavily reverbed vocals crank out some catchy anthems, classic rock, and twisted walls of sound. At times I hear HUSKER DU, JANES ADDICTION, and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE. Good. -Hal MacLean -MAXIMUMROCKNROLL
