I compliment the engineers, the producers and everyone involved with this production. You'll think you are listening to a soundtrack from a big screen movie. It shows us how anything is possible if you want to make it happen. It takes punk music to a different level. Any true, and I mean true musician will appreciate the intricacies of the instrumentations on this CD. Original Misfits guitarist Franché Coma comments: "I will say this: 'Misfits meet the Nutley Brass: Fiend Club Lounge' is one of the best renditions of some of the best Misfits songs ever recorded. The horns seem to jet out like one of the old albums from the Tijuana Brass. Jerry Only comments on Fiend Club Lounge: "If Cat women from the moon landed in Tijuana in the 60's this is the kind of music they would march to! The Nutley Brass version of 'Die, Die My Darling' is swirling with 007 suspense like the soundtrack of an early James Bond movie.
