Album Review: Street Worms by Viagra Boys

Great, Based on 2 Critics

Sometimes, things just seem too good to be true. Stockholm band Viagra Boys are one of these things. Punks that look like punks, sound like punks and write songs about punk things. They sound like The Stooges via The Fall, The Birthday Party via The Jesus Lizard, and they look exactly like you imagine they would: tattoos, drink-reddened faces and denim that only sees water once it's been used in some kind of distilling process.

The 405 - 75
Based on rating 7.5/10

Viagra Boys are a post-punk sextet from Stockholm, although you could easily assume that they're Americans in listening to them with no prior knowledge. This is not only due to their devotion to writing post-punk songs in the ilk of The Men or Parquet Courts, or because singer Sebastian Murphy affects a Southern American drawl throughout, but because of the blues that is a distinctive vein running throughout new album Street Worms. This is infused through their ace-in-the-hole saxophone use and also Seb's tales of woeful characters in each song - although these are not just down-on-their-luck losers, but mentally unwell societal outcasts.
