Review

Coming in with three CDs and 58 tracks, Psycho Killers offers all the UK psychobilly sounds everyone but the hardiest listener could ever hope for. Taking its cue from the music of the Cramps, this is raunchy, twisted stuff, and although it wears thin over the course of such an extensive collection, in fits and starts it's hugely entertaining. Included are wild-and-crazy cuts from the Meteors, Thee Milkshakes, Alien Sex Fiend, Guana Batz, Demented Are Go and the Long Tall Texans. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
