		Not surprisingly, Distillers' second album, Sing Sing Death House sees the band heading in the same raw punk direction as before.
		Sing Sing Death House kicks off with “Sick Of It All,” a hard-charging punk song with noisy bass, a driving beat, raw guitars, and equally raw vocals.
		The anthemic “The Young Crazed Peeling” is an outstanding shout-along song, while the title track, “Sing Sing Death House” is an acidic punk-fest driven by angst and adrenaline.

		A photo exhibition depicting many of the death row inmates who were executed in New York state history comes to the Albany Diocese next week, and the man organizing the show hopes it will teach people on both sides of the death penalty debate about capital punishment.
		He also founded the New York Death Penalty Documentation Project to identify and gather the photos and records of death row inmates who were executed in the state.

		After winning a court appeal, one man released from the Death House wrote the sort of letter to the warden that you would send to a hotel after a vacation: “The Officers and Guards are as fine a group of men as you could find anywhere,” he wrote.
		For many years, America’s most famous opponent of the death penalty was, ironically, the warden of Sing Sing himself, Lewis Lawes.
		By then, the appeals process took so long, and so many condemned prisoners won commutations of their death sentences that the state finally transformed the Death House into a visitors’ center and shipped the electric chair to a Virginia museum.

	Sing Sing Death House Review \| Distillers \| Reviews @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com
		Brody definitely did not let the change in line-up from "The Distillers" to "Sing Sing Deathhouse" affect the sound at all.
		It ranges from hardcore headbanging balls-out rock (Sick Of It All, Sing Sing Death House, bullet and the bullseye, Hate Me) to not poppy but more mainstream rock with tracks like City Of Angels and I am a revenant.
		The best songs on the album are Sick of it all, the young crazed peeling, hate me, and the title track sing sing death house.

	The Distillers - Sing Sing Death House: Silent Uproar
		But with Sing Sing Death House, their sophomore chord sweltering powerhouse, these four pierced, tattered and tattooed fist flyers — to paraphrase Refused — definitely have a bone to pick and a few to break — and I actually like the pain.
		Not only does Sing Sing Death House slash a few chords from the band, but Brody — the Distillers’ vocalist/guitarist/sole songwriter — is married to Tim Armstrong, Rancid’s leader.
		Sing Sing Death House marches with a middle finger raised high as a homage to its forefathers and thrashes with rusty chords that would kick the shit out of everyone in its path while putting an invigoration top spin on a three decade old genre.

	Distillers: Sing Sing Death House Aversion.com Review
		Sing Sing Death House also sports a bunch of bits that no musician can fake, nor can be dropped in with a handy copy of Pro-Tools.
		It’s desperation, pure and simple, something with which The Distillers are more than familiar, from a bitter, phlegmy reality check on the state of the land of dreams ("City of Angels"), or a defiant, can’t-crush-me rager in which Armstrong bears her scars not as injuries, but as badges of honor ("The Young Crazed Peeling").
		Maybe it’s the lineup between the band’s debut, The Distillers (2000, Hellcat) and Sing Sing Death House, or maybe Armstrong has just found her voice.

		he Distillers’ Sing Sing Death House is one of the few albums in the mainstream eye that truly deserves to be referenced as "punk-rock".
		As enthusiastic and straight-edged as Sing Sing Death House is, and for all of Armstrong's brave struggling with her emotional horrors, the album lacks a certain zeal to carry it beyond its spiritual leanings.
		The sense that they are capable of moving forward and making an album that could be a real watershed recording is clear.

		I loved the volume and passion of all of the songs, and hand on heart it was from that moment I knew I was going to be a life long fan of the distillers and their raw sound.
		In my opinion, Sing Sing Death House is one of the most inspiring punk albums (next to And Out Come The Wolves and Dookie)the energy within this album is so intense.

		The photographs of Sing Sing's death-row residents were taken only a few hours after they received their death sentences.
		While overseeing Sing Sing from 1920 to 1941, Lawes supervised the nation's busiest execution chamber while also penning several bestsellers that argued against the death penalty.

	PunkROCKS.net CD Review - Distillers, The - Sing Sing Death House
		Recently, the Distillers have had some lineup issues, holding them back from touring (although they were able to complete a full US tour with Rancid and AFI), and the most prominent addition to their lineup was their drummer Andy, who also plays for fellow Hell-Cat group, the Nerve Agents.
		I've never been incredibly interested in the Distillers, but it only took one listen through "Sing Sing Death House" to see that the Distillers are for real, and can rip out some great old school street style punk rock.
		Brody shows in places that she can sing with passion and high energy, but instead she elects to sing in a lazy and slurred style, much like her husband.

	In Music We Trust - Distillers, The: Sing Sing Death House
		Sing Sing Death House, the band's sophomore effort, is easily the best straightforward punk album out of the US this year.
		Armstrong and her crew mix the type of street tough punk her hubby's known for with intense brashness that sometimes borders on hardcore, forming some real mind-pounding anthems.
		Buried under speedy drum rolls and loud, frazzled axe riffs, tracks like "City of Angels", "Sick of It All" and "Seneca Falls" all have tasty sweeteners hidden inside.

		Brody Armstrong's loaded with talent, she sings with the energy of Courtney Love, the swagger of Joan Jett and the cool lack of enunciation of Rancid's Tim Armstrong (who happens to be her husband - maybe their lip pins are stuck together?), and she writes material worthy of being performed by someone like that.
		Right now punk is going in so many directions that the word has lost its original meaning.
		They do seem to be able to present tales of angst and adversity without smacking into very many cliches, which is some neat trick.
