RED LIGHT RIPPERS - Nobody Likes A Rat (Fading Ways)
"Red Light Rippers are really a 'highlight'. The new album has its own sound, fortunately it’s not mainstream. It is too soft for punkrock and too crazy for Glam/Sleazerock. Shortly: RLR rock!"

"Retro is in and the sound of this album is really Garage-style. Even the Metallica producers cannot do that."

"Mangy Rock, Glitterdust and Rock'n'Roll clichè turn you into Axl Rose, Bon Scott and Mick Mars at the hight of their careers. The chances of recovery are minimal. Even the smallest note of this sound drug can cause lasting and irreparable damage."

RED LIGHT RIPPERS – “Nobody Likes A Rat” CD ’06 (Fading Ways)
Maybe nobody likes a rat, but I sure as hell am liking what’s going on in Canada these days! Everybody’s getting’ wild up there! Priestess, Mad King Ludwig, Crystal Pistol, Captain Tractor, hell even ol’ Alex Lifeson decided to get rippin’ a couple New Year’s Eve’s ago. And now in my hands I’ve got a nice little package from the RED LIGHT RIPPERS (thanks to a kewl, eye-grabbing review from Sleazegrinder in Classic “Rawk.”). Here’s the dealio, now children! First I look at these guys and they look cool. One guy’s got a “Volume 4” shirt on. Points there. Another guy’s got a “FUCK” belt-buckle on. More points. ‘Nuther dude looks like early Mick Mars & is wearing a Weekly World News shirt with a picture of a “bat child” and words like “kill,” “eat,” etc. on the sleeve. Bonus points. Now there names: Rip Skinner, Staci T. Rat, Stephane DeBernardi (gotta have one guy with a real kinda name, adds to the street-cred, honcho), Bonz. Yeah, the drummer’s name is Bonz. Ok, now that you’ve gone thru this crap for a paragraph, put the disc in, Ray. Whaddya got?! I hear early Cheap Trick, I hear early (i.e. first album) Crue. I hear Stooges. I hear some screwed up, black-painted dive somewhere in Manhattan in the late ‘70’s where if you didn’t have something with a skull inked somewhere on your body you’d probably get your ass kicked. Most of all, in the very middle of it, I hear nearly pop-like melodies I can’t forget taking names like “Pills,” “This Dog” & “Trailer Trash Trixie.” I hear RAAAAAWWWWWWKKKKK!

Foot to the floor, stocked n' dropped, hot-rod racing cool as a '73 Dodge charger street-punk trailer trash loving rock 'n roll. You can smell the flame- burst door decals and the beer stained bowling shirts from here. Bad ass street punks with half a foot in the land of Bon Scott, Guns n'Roses, Wildhearts and Nazareth. Raw, delivered with just the right no frills gritty in-your-face hi-energy attitude, they appear to be from Canada and if this sounds like your kind of thing then they do it damn well and they're worth all your time and that money you would have wasted on beer.

Holy Crap, Sara Percival from Spill Magazine did not like us at all! It was brutal! However she did have this one good thing to say,"Staci T. Rat is an outstanding guitar player" Well thank you :-)

Heavy With a Touch of Sleaze
The last time I heard unknown sleaze rock that was this good it was by a band called Guns N Roses...
It's one of those records that leaves you with a cheeky sordid grin that's hard to wipe off.
by Marty Dodge

RED LIGHT RIPPERS - Nobody Likes a Rat (FADING WAYS MUSIC/SONIC RENDEZVOUS)
Now this band knows how to play good old late 80s American Sleazy Hard rock at it's best. With comparisons to Crash Kelly, Major NA, Cats'N'Boots, and Faster Pussycat this is an ultimate classic Sleazy Metal release from a Canadian band. The Toronto based band will be an absolute must if you miss the days of Guns"N'Roses, Kix, Britny Fox, Dangerous Toys, Motley Crue, etc. 30 minutes of cool classic 80s Sleazy Rock and Roll can be heard, with as highlights the songs "Addicted" (very strong catchy almost melodic hard rock type of song), "This dog" (even a bit Streethearts/Starz/Teaze/Moxy classic 70s Canadian Hard rock mixed with Alice Cooper) and "C'Mon baby". One to own if you're a fan of the Perris Records releases.
