by Ed RivadaviaBudgie's last gasp, 1982's Deliver Us from Evil no doubt draws its title from born-again singer Burke Shelley's newfound Christian convictions; but no amount of faith can rescue this record from a complete musical shipwreck. Guitarist Big John Thomas displays the unenviable talent of regurgitating the most trite power chords and solos imaginable into songs like Truth Drug and the unbearable Don't Cry. The band finally gets it together for closer Hold on to Love, but by then it's too little, too late.
