Say what you will about crowdfunding, but it often gets good shit done from time to time.

Chainsaw Hookers now have a complete showcase of their pop culture-fuelled “horror punk”, and there’s enough smartness injected in to make this another ripper from the Perth mainstays.

Fan of Jaws? How about masked serial killers, or crazy fundamentalist churches? The four-piece have jammed film tropes into just over a half hour of non-stop, riff-driven rock, only to be halted by the occasional call to party. It’s big, it’s loud, it’s dumb – and it works.
