"Taking out the Trashabilly" portrays a hyper-mashed hybrid of swing, rockabilly, and swamp blues like a fish that crawled straight out of the polluted depths of the Mississippi River.

Details:
This is the only full-length album from the now-defunct Johnny O & the Jerks. Recorded as teenagers, this album offers only a brief glance at the new sound they were creating. "Taking out the Trashabilly" combines swing, rockabilly, and blues into, if nothing else, one hell of a time. Johnny O's guitar work is beautiful and dirty, and the rhythm section drives the nails into the coffin. "3 Little Birds" catalog's the fight against sobriety in a bleeding blues epic. Their cover of the Paul Newman-adopted classic "Plastic Jesus" parallels the drastic mood swings of their live performances, transitioning from slow and beautiful to complete chaos in mere seconds. "White Knuckle Rock" is an anthem to all of those who lives descend into hell daily. It's all rock and roll, dig it.
