In another universe, “Bad Blood” and “Evol” (nothing to do with the Sonic Youth album of the same title) would jangle with a mid-‘80s aura, but here they’re covered in reverb and left moaning in the moonlight. Hints of Nick Cave and the Fleshtones tilt this style war in several different directions, all with confident success. “Conscience Killer” follows with a similar introduction before mowing down the opposition with a rattle-shaking garage rock. The title-track kicks things off with a tribal sing-a-long that’s part-desert hallucination, part psych-punk freakout. On 2010’s Beat the Devil’s Tattoo, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club switch it up between their love for Jesus and Mary Chain feedback-drenched pop and their sudden turn towards Americana on 2005’s Howl.
