As of last year The Hellacopters are no more. Which is a damn shame because they are without a doubt one of Scandivia’s finest rock bands. But at least they won’t let us go home empty-handed but with one last studio album instead, “Head Off”.
Even though the album is comprised entirely of covers, you wouldn’t say so right away. They have all been subjected to the Hellacopters formula and wouldn’t look out of place on any of their other releases. If you are interested in the original artists, check out The Hellacopter site but it includes artists like New Bomb Turks and Gaza Strippers. Anyway, just like any other album by this band, it’s all no-frills rock n roll that goes back all the way to Thin Lizzy. “Head Off” is a great way to say goodbye and we here at PunkRockTheory HQ wouldn’t have it any other way!
Score: 8 out of 10
