"Hide your daughters. Preoccupied with sex and rock `n' roll, The International Playboys make irresponsibly entertaining rock." - PUNK PLANET "Shades of Alice Cooper and the MC5 updated for the masses. You would have a hard time going wrong." - RAZORCAKE "The International Playboys play raw, sex-addled rock `n' roll. There don't seem to be any gimmicks, just five guys and a whole pile of killer riffs and catchy tunes ... singer Monty Carlo ... somehow manages to sound like Bon Scott, Janis Joplin, Taime Downe, and the guy from Nazareth rolled into one." - ROADBURN.com The International Playboys have been one of the country's hardest working unsigned acts since 1999. Hailing from big sky country, they've put in over 80,000 miles in the last four years supporting their two self-released albums and a self-released EP, most recently coming to Austin for SXSW 2006 to play the Australian Cattle God Records showcase. Musically, these guys are straight up rock `n' roll with a good sense of humor and a passionate delivery. There is no need for hyphenated sub-gentrification here. Cobra Blood Hangover continues the Playboy's legacy of gritty, sexy rock with plenty of swagger as it takes you through heartbreaks, hangovers, work-a-day complacency, and the outright destruction of an entire town. Their performances are wildly animated, with drummer Joe Danger flailing like Animal the Muppet, singer Monty Carlo gesticulating and genuflecting madly, guitarist Captain Sextastic stroll-soloing through the audience, and bassist The Count holding it all together from his place stage right.
