The Sultans, Ghost Ship (Sympathy for the Record
Industry): This is an album of gritty punk rock. Thirteen manic
tracks. Dig it. Raspy-voiced Rocket From the Crypt frontman John Reis
shows prowess in the captain's seat, steering Ghost Ship at
high speed through pirate (punk) waters. The Sultans combine
Ramones-style thunderous three-chord rock and the swinging melodies
of The Queers with some dirty hardcore guitar riffage and a
more-than-healthy dose of sarcasm. First check out "Heartbreaker" and
the excellently titled "(this ain't no) Solid State." Jenny
Tatone
