The Last Of The Bad Men

Nowhere Is Safe…

[4/5] Radio Birdman fans should have no trouble getting into Deniz Tek’s latest project, the Last Of The Bad Men, even if he is in more of a supporting role to the Godoy Brothers of Exploding Fuck Dolls fame. This is punk as the old wave understood it, but possibly sloppier, fueled by ferocious guitar leads from Tek and Art Godoy, and guided by frontman Danny Creadon’s sneering, who brings attitude like Johnny Rotten on a bad hair day. There are times when Nowhere Is Safe… feels like it’s spiraling out of control, but in a good way, with guitars as in your face as Never Mind The Bollocks, ripping off the same Chuck Berry/Johnny Thunders licks with a fuck-it-all swagger that almost makes it feel like something new.
