THE NEW ALBUM
IN STORES NOW!!!

Order the CD From Bloodshot Records

Download the album from iTunes







Sounds Like

"The Detroit Cobras have hit upon a magic formula: record old songs that hardly anybody knows and then sit back while the world jacks you off for being so damn cool." Bust Magazine

"Baby boasts the bands signature garage rock style, complete with vocals from the always-seductive Rachel Nagy." Venus Magazine

"Baby is a really fun album -- one that will get you dancing and drinking and misbehaving, or at least thinking about it." Splendid Magazine

"There's retro, and there's old-fashioned gut-busting rock and roll. The Cobras, our greatest current party band, define the latter category. Singer Rachel Nagy has Patsy Clines pipes and Courtney Loves attitude. The band is raucous and raw. The songs are saucy classics. Hot damn!" Tim Mohr, Playboy

"If Iggy Pop, Berry Gordy, and Jackie DeShannon fornicated in the back seat of a 63 Thunderbird, the drunken, swaggering Detroit Cobras would slither from the orgiastic rendezvous. Hot Dog (Watch Me Eat), the lone original, is a bouncy sleaze-garage number laced with sexual double entendres, proving the Cobras can step up to the plate with equal horniness." Magnet Magazine

   About The Detroit Cobras

*** PAY ATTENTION: If you are a show promoter or a media person (looking to get the Cobras in your radio station or newspaper), DO NOT make requests via MySpace mail, because it's more than likely you won't get a timely answer, and we wanna help you out where we can. Contact our record label: Bloodshot Records. Under the FAQ, it has the e-mail addresses of the people you'll need to contact. Thanks, DC ***

Crawling out from the weed-choked lots of the once proud town, The Detroit Cobras whip out ass-shaking anthems to good times, wild times, and the high and lows of L-U-V-E; you best believe it and you best not mess with it. Singer Rachel Nagy and guitarist Mary Ramirez are the bad girls by the exit doors at the school dance, all leather and heels, sneaking smokes and passing the flask. They have no time for dewy-eyed love songs or girl group decorum; theyll take care of business themselves with a bat of the eye or an elbow to the kidney. Rachels warm as the bourbon under the seat of your car voice can boom to the back pews (Did we say "pews?" We meant "barstools") and Marys riffs let you know that love and good times can be found in the tilt of a hip or at the end of a fist.

Okay... After endless loop-playback of all the DC albums on my iPod, it's official... Baby is in my Top 5 albums of all time. Rachel, if you ever decide you don't need your vocal chords anymore, TOTALLY hit me up about a transplant. I'll take 'em!! Haha...
