Cripple Creek Fairies

Fire in Yer Hole

BY Stuart GreenPublished Dec 1, 2005

The pride (or is that shame?) of Calgary return with a follow-up to last year’s The Fist EP/comic book release that finds the profane and prolific quintet on a mission to rock the panties off rock fans far and wide. The production is bigger and cleaner but the lyrical content and underlying intent are most certainly not. Recalling the motor city mayhem of the Stooges and MC5, their updated brand of garage rock is a definite treat. And more importantly it is proof that in spite of Nickelback, Alberta still knows how to rock it old school.
