Though the Dead Romantic's didn't headline local promoter Katie Perry's (devil kat rock) birthday bash, the band made quite an impression. "I'm into dirty rock. I don't necessarily care about playing well. It's a rock SHOW, not a music performance." Elvis Black claimed. And rock the Dead Romantics did. Black jumped around stage as sweat streamed down his face; drummer Drew Huggeybutt exposed his pearly whites but never cracked a smile; and guitarist OJ All Day posed for pictures with his mom while he played. The band had a good time working the crowd and thrashing around the stage. "They get very loud" Commented Laurel Karsch, OJ All Day's mother. The Dead Romantics may be a baby of a band (just over a year old) but Black and OJ have been in a number of separte music projects including, Valentine, Razor Death Squad, BlackFire, Dirty Jim and the Violators, and Common Use. The Dead Romantics may come together and make listener's sternums vibrate, but it seems the band doesn't care to make it big. "I've got kids and I'm married and I'm happy." Comments Black. "I'm not going to get famous and I don't need to be. I'm just here to get fucked up and play some tunes. If a few people get into it, that's cool, if they don't, I'm still going to have a good time." When ask to describe his band's sound Black said," we're dirty rock, almost pop rock with lots of distortion and screaming." Whether you call it dirty rock or dirty pop, the Dead Romantics put on a great show. Catch them if and when you can. Chelsey Shoop Chico News and Review
