Danish rockabilly punks Horrorpops have excelled for years at creating music that sounds like a dream date between Debbie Harry and the Misfits. KISS KISS KILL KILL further expands their sonic palate without compromising their garish identity. It's still red lipstick, jet-black bangs, and sharp switchblades, but the title track is more Missing Persons than Misfits, and "Hitchcock Starlet" is a big, moody cinematic ballad. The Horrorpops are still the Horrorpops, however, and "Keep My Picture" and "Boot2Boot" are pure greasy-hair rockabilly.
