On opening track “Don’t Sweat It, Steal It” Paul Bearer puts his Sheer Terror roar to good use. But on the rest of album number two for Joe Coffee, he doesn’t sound quite as menacing. He even croons a little at times. Scary? Not really.I’m not saying that “When The Fabric Don’t Fit The Frame” is a good album because this melange of street rock, punk, soul and blues is a little too all over the place for its own good. Yet it does have its fine moments. Like the bluesy “You’re Gonna Make Me Do Bad” and “Baby’s Comin’ Home Today” which comes complete with a horn section.
Whether it’s a case of “well on their way but not quite there” or “want to but can’t” is something I haven’t decided on yet. Let’s wait and see what they do on album number three.
Score: 6 out of 10
