The Cramps' A Date with Elvis is psychobilly at its most lurid and grinning, a 1986 set of greasy riffs, B-movie lust and gleefully filthy innuendo.

By the mid-eighties, Lux Interior and Poison Ivy had spent a decade perfecting their mutant blend of rockabilly, garage punk and horror-show camp. For this album the band worked as a trio, with Ivy handling both guitars and bass alongside drummer Nick Knox, and they produced the record themselves. The title borrows from an old Elvis Presley collection, a cheeky salute to the patron saint of their whole twisted aesthetic.

How Far Can Too Far Go? kicks off with a slinking, swampy groove and Lux's leering croon, and What's Inside a Girl? became one of their best-loved songs, a sweaty, twanging question mark of a tune. Aloha from Hell gives surf guitar a devilish twist, and Kizmiaz brings Ivy's own voice into the mix. People Ain't No Good offers a deliciously deadpan verdict on human nature.

Every song here sounds like it was recorded late at night under a flickering neon sign.

For fans of trash culture, twang and rock and roll at its most unapologetically weird, this is essential Cramps, and it still feels wonderfully dangerous on vinyl.
