The Ruiners

How’s That Grab Ya? (Disaster)
by Craig Regala

Hey there! Have a slice of classicist influenced Garage&B. One part Cramps (and their attendant influence on the non-purist rockabilly/roots hoo-ha in the ’80s), one part Munsters/Groovie Ghoulies (the TV shows), one part smeared make-up Ronettes, one part other stuff from their Detroit environs around ’66 and it’s fallout on the record’s co-producer, Mick Collins. Picks to hit, the female sung, “Ghost Pains,” and “M’girl Left With You.”
