Sounds Like:

A Riotous amalgamation of glam with a huge shot of AOR runnin' through its veins. Built on the foundations laid by the likes of Kiss, Ratt, Dokken, Poison, Warrant and Black N Blue in the eighties, a glorious throwback to a bygone era. To my ears they sound like a combination of Poison and Steevi James era Tigertailz, vocalist Julez Mephisto sounds like Bret Michaels. Buy Or Die people Buy Or Die!!! - Rob Evans, Powerplay Magazine.

The Deadthings - "When Hell Sleazes Over" is exactly the record zombie Crue would make. Pretty awesome cock' n 'roll. 7 / 10 - Classic Rock Magazine - May 2005 Issue 79
