For those in the US or wherever you may be. Driving off to celebrations or get togethers as there isn’t much to celebrate. I unearth this silly classic. They only ever released the one album. But I still love it to this day. Gothic-surf-a-rama and Tomb Mau-mau are always good.

      They are Psychobilly royalty along with the Reverend and the Meteors.

      Rockabilly is considered a blend of country/R&B/Rock&Roll. Psychobilly upgrades Rock & Roll to Punk with a massive sprinkling of horror. And yeah, DaG are definitely punk as fuck. P. Paul Fenech (the Meteors) and Mark “Sparky” Philips (DaG) both have that rough rumbling gravely voice that really kind of screams dirty raw punk. So similar that just hearing them you might almost think they were the same person LOL.

      Though Mark has done a few duets with Emanuela Hutter of Hillbilly Moon Explosion. Not as punk but absolutely epic

        This is the only psychobilly that I have experience with. Obviously more of a country/hillbilly vibe.

          Definitely bit more of a classic country western vibe. 🙂 I suppose it could be the other side of psycho-billy from horror punk. 🤘And then there’s Tiger Army regularly doing country western ballads with a bit more of a punk rock feel.
