Songs The Lord Taught Us

The Cramps

The group channeled forgotten rockabilly and horror themes into a dangerous, energetic collection. By stripping away standard polish, they highlighted a raw, garage-rock edge.

Recorded with Alex Chilton, the album captures the lo-fi aesthetic of the psychobilly scene. It functions like a haunted jukebox in a basement, defining the band's penchant for midnight-movie camp and trashy instrumentation.
