  CNN - New gospel reaching out to next generation - January 7, 1999
VH1 is bringing gospel to its audience with a series of concert specials from the House of Blues with Franklin, MC Hammer and vocalists CeCe Winans and Shirley Caesar.
Along with attracting a large audience, Franklin's brand of contemporary gospel is also garnering the attention of other artists.
Gospel artists believe their music has the power to do more than simply entertain.

 Reverend Horton Heat - Biography - AOL Music
The latter was nothing new in the world of psychobilly, and Heat's music certainly kept the trashy aesthetic of his spiritual forebears.
The Reverend's true innovation was updating the psychobilly sound for the alternative rock era.
In his hands, it was something more than retro-obsessed kitsch -- it had roaring distorted guitars, it rocked as hard as any punk band, and it didn't look exclusively to pop culture of the past for its style or subject matter.

 Rockabilly Central - Homeward Sounds
It's the sound apologists make when they cock their pistols and shoot the messenger instead of listening to the message.
Full of Spanish vocals, big rock moves, turntable scratching, keyboard fills and thrills...and that's just the first song.
The disc sounds like what you'd expect from the man who used to hawk eight-track tapes at his 14 Records shop on Greenville: Burnett never knew there was a present — or a future, for that matter — to escape to, so he recreates the past with a fetishist's fervor.

 Klang und Kleid - Musikkatalog - REVEREND HORTON HEAT - Rockabilly: New Kings (Sub Pop) - The Full Custom Gospel ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Kicking off with "Wiggle Stick," a perfectly lubricious number that ended up scoring the band some airplay with Beavis and Butthead, the good Reverend serves notice that his services are once again the type of affairs where the Blood and the Body aren't necessarily spiritual.
Full Custom is arguably more frenetic and metal-leaning than before -- not that Heat has turned into Robert Plant or anything like that, but the likes of "Livin' on the Edge (Of Houston)" would sound perfect smack dab in the middle of a Motörhead set.
Aside from the "speed up then slow down the tape" goofiness on the concluding "Gin and Tonic Blues," Haynes doesn't really change the band's overall sound or anything, but he sure does help it sound great.

The Full Custom Gospel Sounds by Reverend Horton Heat
Suede are working-class lads striving for glamour, and they achieve it by piecing together remnants of the past with pieces of the present, never forgetting the value of a strong hook in the process.
And while the sound of Suede frequently recalls the peak of glam-rock, its punk-influenced passion and self-conscious appropriation of the past makes it thoroughly postmodern.

 The Austin Chronicle Music: Review - Reverend Horton Heat
He may be preaching to the choir at this point, but with rejuvenated style and without those annoying excursions into cocktail swing (save "Go With Your Friends," which finally gets it right).
What's left is vintage flame-fendered psychobilly that recalls his Sub Pop heyday, beginning with lifestyle manifesto "Loco Gringos Like a Party," continuing along various vehicular homages, up-tempo ultimatums, and instrumental larks, and concluding with an amusing valentine to longtime slap-bass sidekick "Nature Boy" Jimbo Wallace.
In a way, he's come full circle: On "400 Bucks," our Reverend was upset because his woman took his money and bought a car; now, on "Galaxy 500," she's left him the car and took everything else -- and he couldn't be happier.

 Rev. Horton Heat - Rockabilly Central
The new disc is the same combo platter of rockabilly, country, hard-edged swing and jump-style blues influences that first made the Rev's name.
"On Sub Pop [on which Gospel Sounds was recorded], we were the guys who could take care of ourselves," recalls Heath, in a phone interview from his hotel in Philadelphia.
It doesn't sound like you at all.' We'd pull into a town, and their own reps didn't know we were coming.

With fellow Texas maniac Gibby Haynes on production, Heat and his trusty sidemen go at it again on The Full Custom Gospel Sounds and do so with all the style and sass one could want.
Buy us more beer!" Aside from the "speed up then slow down the tape" goofiness on the concluding "Gin and Tonic Blues," Haynes doesn't really change the band's overall sound or anything, but he sure does help it sound great.

Although the Meat Puppets' previous album, 1991's Forbidden Places, was one of the Arizona trio's finest, the band wasn't completely happy with the album's sound, courtesy of longtime Dwight Yoakam producer Pete Anderson.
Most prominent of these is that many of the songs were initially essayed on Liz Phair's homemade cassette Girlysound, which means that the songs are essentially the cream of the crop from an exceptionally talented songwriter.
By the time Where You Been surfaced, Seattle had completely exploded, and given that Dinosaur Jr.'s sound, attitude, and more were as proto-slacker as could be, the temptation must have been great to cash in.

But unlike Picasso, who chose to work within a monochromatic theme during that period, Oliverson, guitarist Mark Schultz, singer Lemon and bassist/keyboardist Thom Ancell draw from a more expansive palette as evidenced by their kaleidoscopic sound on "Singularity." The album's 10 original songs are prismatic and offer listeners colorful analysis of the human condition.
Oliverson is a fan of old-school heavy metal, particularly Metallica, while Ancell prefers electronic sound effects and Nine Inch Nails.
Admission is $15 and those who attend will receive a free copy of "Singularity" as well as be admitted free of charge to a listening party afterwards at the House of Bricks at 9 p.m., where WOTMC will spin its new record between sets by fellow local rockers Waiting for the Fall, Odium and Taciturn.

Reverend Horton Heat - The Full Custom Gospel Sounds Of Reverend Horton Heat
Recorded in Memphis's Ardent Studios, GOSPEL SOUNDS is yet another rabble-rousing batch of slap bass, breakneck-speed guitar, and the raspy singing of the good Reverend Heat (Jim Heath).
When Heat isn't whooping it up with the lascivious "Wiggle Stick," he's putting on a nimble display of fingerpicking on the instrumental "Beer: 30." Unfettered garage rock is furiously delivered on such manic workouts as "Big Little Baby," the runaway "Lonesome Train," and the chugging, fleet-fingered "Bales of Cocaine," an amusing tale of drug smugglers.

A better story is the flaming pie-esque fable they tell on their MySpace page, involving four little boys in 1959 and a strange man in fl with a bottle of Jack Daniel's.
Then we spent the fall driving around the country, going to different studios for the sounds we wanted." The pAper chAse then continued to offer up live shows last year when most bands would hole up in studios satisfied to just be recording...proving that indeed, these unfriendly bastards actually like to play for you people.
Their sound has been described as a "mutant offspring of Rush, Pink Floyd, Dream Theater, Gary Numan, The Mars Volta and Pantera," but it's not nearly as gruesome as all that.

No matter that Sparrows (which includes Ward Williams on slide guitar and pedal steel, bassist Dave Monsey, guitarist Danny Baylis and drummer Brent Cole) are still playing the small rooms instead of the big stadiums, or that Albrecht is too nice, too humble and too talented to be relegated to that kind of corrupt celebrity.
The first, of course, is the enduring quality of her two studio albums, 1997's Baduizm and 2000's Mama's Gun, both of which time has only given the opportunity to unfurl at a pace suited to Badu's brain-melting voice and her sassy/sweet songwriting.

Unlike the Cramps, The Damned and Social Distortion, all of which have culled elements of '50s music into their distinctive creations, Heat adheres pretty rigidly to a rockabilly framework, embellishing it with plenty of freewheeling bluesy solos.
Even though all of the songs on this second album are originals, they're executed with such reverence they sound like covers.

These 34 lo-fi recordings -- including live tracks, home recordings, and an incomplete number recorded, or at least attempted, in a planetarium's public restroom -- span the years 1984-1987, predating the band's debut album and its appearance in the documentary film Athens, GA Inside/Out.
The sound is often less than primitive, but that shouldn't deter the band's most dedicated fans.

Unlike other bands that try to incorporate theatrics like these into their live show and come off as forced, these moments never felt dishonest in any way.
During "Wiggle Stick" from their second album The Full Custom Gospel Sounds, Heath showed-off an extraordinary amount of guitar-playing proficiency with a little bit of sorcery thrown-in for good measure.
After a short break and an old recording of a National Bohemian Beer commercial, the Reverend Horton Heat came back to play "Party Mad" and "If It Ain't Got Rhythm." Both were well received by the audience, but obviously were still too new to be crowd favorites.

Psychobilly has its roots in bands like the Cramps who jumped on the rockabilly revival already started in the early 80s.
Reverend Horton Heat, probably the undisputed king of the scene kicks the disc off with the unreleased "Loco Gringos Like To Party." It is the best track on the disc mostly due to the Rev's Dick Dale meets Carl Perkins guitar style and usual tongue-in-cheek lyrics.

Copyright 1993, from the Rev's latest, The Full-Custom Gospel Sounds of the Reverend Horton Heat:
Psychotic bursts of string-bending reverbmanship from the Rev. It's an archetypal sound that reeks with atmosphere.
The best summation of the Rev and his music comes from a fellow Texan, rock archivist Tim Stegall, who writes: "There's always been something profoundly, eternally satisfying about the sound of backwoods trash tanked on pills and rhythm and blues til their plaintive field hollerin' starts thumping to a manic new beat.

Soon, a strange thing began to happen: the mainstream began to warm up to the Butthole Surfers, as the band inked a major-label deal with Capitol Records, and toured as part of the inaugural Lollapalooza festival in 1991.
In addition to continuing to record/tour with the Buttholes, Haynes produced the sophomore effort by Reverend Horton Heat, Full Custom Gospel Sounds, and lent his vocal skills to both Ministry's breakthrough single/video "Jesus Built My Hotrod" and the song "Fire in the Hole" from the Jane's Addiction offshoot Deconstruction.
But Haynes reacted badly to all the sudden attention, as he began indulging heavily in hard drugs, eventually working his way to a deadly habit.
