Music reviews of Life of Crime/YOu Can't Pray A Lie
Music Review: Don't blame them grunge!
Rating: 5 Stars
Supposedly Life of Crime is the record played for Geffen so they could get permission to record with Butch Vig. Once Butch got big off of Nirvana he raised the rate for all the bands that put him on the map (Hyeneas, Killdozer, etc) so they couldn't record with him anymore. Swell guy.
Anyways, Life of Crime and You Can't Pray a Lie are both killer records. The Hyenas were always WAY better than Mudhoney and all the other over-rated bands on Sub Pop. The rhythm section was the tightest around, Larissa's guitar playing was completely unique and John Brannon's awesome voice needs no introduction. How they managed to achieve all this while battling their drug problems is even more impressive.
These days everyone is pretending to be the biggest Negative Approach fan that ever was and the Hyenas kind of get forgotten about. I like NA a lot, but the Hyenas were a much better band and were able to pull of killer Alice Cooper covers. Make sure to check out Easy Action, John Brannon's current group. They're a terrific blend of NA and Hyeneas.
And while you're at it, check out Mighty High...In Drug City.
