COBRA VERDE
"Copycat Killers" (Scat)
Rolling Stone
August 25, 2005

It helps to know a little about Cobra Verde's roots in Cleveland underground-rock lore to appreciate the breadth of repertoire on this all-covers album. But the fun is obvious, as Cobra Verde remake Pink's "Get the Party Started" and the Fall's "The Dice Man" in their own glam-devil image and play the Troggs, Undertones and Mott the Hoople songs here like they wish they'd written them.
