Billy Butcher Penny
Dreadful
By Zane Ewton
Billy
Butcher Penny Dreadful
Label: Outlaw
Records
Rating: 
Canadian-bred Pete Parker mixes AC/DC riffs,
southern rock twang and a healthy interest in whiskey to create an enjoyably
dumb album. Parker is the driving force in Billy Butcher, writing
the songs, playing guitar and handling lead vocals.
Heavily influenced by southern culture,
sex and drugs, Penny Dreadful is 30 minutes of rumbling rock and
roll. The music is carefully crafted but the lyrics are laughable.
Parker brags my balls are big enough to start the third world war and
pines for Texas, I hope the Alamo holds.
You get the feeling that Parker hasnt
even been to Texas, but his enthusiasm is contagious and you will quickly
forgive him. Billy Butcher would benefit from a stronger lead vocalist
as that is the weakest trait of Penny Dreadful. Parker shouts
and rambles without the swagger that is required of this music.
Penny Dreadful is beer drinking music made
by a high quality bar band. Billy Butcher created an album of dumb,
loud rock and roll. The way it should be.
