DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST YOUR STEREO

In Paul Morrissey's 3-D version of Frankenstein there's a §teminal scene in which the doctor, after screwing a corpse while fondling its entrails, turns to his assistant, Otto, and offers some sage wisdom that goes something like: 'In order to know life, one must first fuck death'.' The Cramps'' greatest artistic achievement is in applying a similar philosophical approach to rock 'n' roll's roots.
