Going on 10 years now, Nevada rockers Flesh Hammers have been playing some raunchy rock & roll and having a good time doing it. They play to the lowest common denominator, but do it with style and flare, like '70s drag queen icon Divine. Lead singer Blackie Crabtree grew up in LA, and used to play the Whiskey and the Troubadour, now his band plays like a campy version of the pristine LA hard rock scene, much like if someone hired Roger Corman to produce the next Batman blockbuster. The elements are all the same, but style is everything. Just look at the bands they're chummy with: Grannies, Murderball, Nashville Pussy. (Aaron Carnes)
