Whether you were born with a tail or a pair of angel wings — or neither — the Supersuckers' fire-and-brimstone rock & roll circus is guaranteed to get your blood up. From early punk blasts — like the 1994 Sub Pop classic La Mano Cornuda (translated: The Horned Hand) — to the twang period that found the band backing Steve Earle on an eponymous 1997 EP, up to the forthcoming Get It Together, Eddie Spaghetti's motley crew has lost none of its trademark piss and vinegar. (One new song is called "I'm a Fucking Genius.") Like Dizzy Dean famously said, it ain't bragging if you can do it.
