"With a name like The Deviants and an album cover featuring a nun licking a popsicle you know you're in good hands and so it was...........

This final Deviants album featured the debut of Paul Rudolph on guitar. Here he's a bit tentative as is the band and it makes for a compelling mix.  Frontman Mick Farren didn't really do much on this album which is probably why he became unhappy and the band tossed him during a disastrous American tour and soon thereafter morphed into The Pink Fairies of legendary renown.

The jokes mostly fall flat and the hard rock is mostly muted and not particularly scintillating but the song structures can amuse and Metalmorphosis at the end is a 9 minute epic where Rudolph really lets loose with the kind of vibe he'd soon be spewing all over the Pink Fairies records as well as Twink's solo Lp.

Essential stuff for reprobates and mugwumps like you....and me"
