Description
To call Lucero Memphis’ answer to Bruce Springsteen is not a stretch. It’s just how it is. And on Rebels, Rogues & Sworn Brothers, Lucero clearly isn’t afraid to show fans how The Boss has influenced them, all the while maintaining their patented style - in-your-face, alternative-punk-country with high energy and abrasive lyrics. Lucero continues to tell vivid stories, peppering their lyrics with references to slice-of-life and small town Americana culture. Twangy riffs complement Ben Nichol’s signature whiskey-soaked vocals. And this time out, they’ve turned the corner a bit, thanks to the addition of keys by Rick Steff, who also contributed keys on Cat Power’s The Greatest record. As a result, Rebels, Rogues & Sworn Brothers is full, memorable and layered, complete with resonant songs that tug at your heartstrings and that take up real estate in your brain for days at a time.

GWAR / Kingdom of Sorrow / Toxic Holocaust Only lead singer Oderus Urungus (aka Dave Brockie) has stuck around since GWAR's start 23 years ago, but the huge costumes, raunchy and obscene lyrics, and fluids spraying into the audience are sure to be on full display as the metal band makes its return to Dallas.
