The Blame

No One Is Innocent

Rated R

Here’s a great eight-song EP for anyone who would appreciate a cross between Cheap Trick, Motorhead and the Dictators. Especially the Dictators, since The Blame cover “New York, New York.” Their original songs, like “That’s the Way It Goes,” “Popcorn” and “If I Turned You Away,” all have great punk/power pop appeal. They also play a punk version of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” which might bring a tear to your grandmother’s eye. Rated R Records, 1104 S. Chelsea Cove Drive, Hopewell Junction, New York 12533
