"There were many facets to their sound, yet they had a strong, unique identity. The Bloodless Pharoahs' blend of past and futuristic sounds with flashy fashion and a theatrical, unusual-sounding singer made Roxy Music the obvious comparison. Their melodic, brooding, cinematic music was a mixture of rockabilly, art-rock and jazz, but it was always punk rock too. The ambitious musical structures and singer Ken Kinnally's dreamlike, caustic, and hilarious lyrics provided the perfect showcase for Brian Setzer's almost scary guitar prowess." -- Jay Schwartz, October 1996, from b&w insert
