my first impression upon hearing today's new song from The Defectors was that the chorus "Bring on the tentacles!" Obviously that's not the case once you know the song title, but I didn't bother reading the sleeve before I put the CD in my car stereo. So while my head was spinning with the images of a HP Lovecraft horrorshow featuring Cthulu and the Deep Ones, The Defectors were really just singing about graveyards, the undead and other b-movie plots, following in the footsteps of bands like Deadbolt and the misfits. It's a shame that first impression was so off because there's a wealth of literary inspiration there just ripe for the picking, but I can settle for "Dancing ghouls".
