A big thanks to Hugh Guiland at Big Cheese Magazine for the review of our debut album "Hollywood Monsters" 

"Reprobate rock n roll in a Damned/Dead Boys mould

A snot-nosed outburst of brothel-creepered punk from the unapologetically trashy DeRellas, "Hollywood Monsters" is a B-flick take on the vintage punk sound, leaning heavily towards the amphetamine snarl of the Damned.  In fact, Brian James might well check his pockets if he's ever in earshot of some of these boys' guitar licks, but there's no harm in a bit of sincere flattery.  In terms of sneering high-powered riffery, these boys can certainly cook it up"

Grab yerself a copy of the latest BIG CHEESE MAGAZINE!  Not only is it a top mag, but it features The DeRellas single 'She's A Pistol' on the covermount CD.  Described as:

"A sleazy collision of punk and rock n roll, these glamtastic Londoners shoot from the hip!  Doing legends such as the Ramones and the New York Dolls proud, this infectious sexed up sing-along is what their debut album "Hollywood Monsters" is all about.  These guys certainly hit the bullseye here!"

The CD, which also features Sonic Boom Six, Alexisonfire, Lacuna Coil and Mouthwash, is available with BIG CHEESE MAGAZINE at all good newsagents NOW!!

The DeRellas – Hollywood Monsters (www.myspace.com/thederellas1)
Talking about playing the Portland Arms, everyone who caught The DeRellas at their recent show there, left the room with a fixed grin on their faces. Even in the cramped backroom of a pub, to a modest and in some cases initially stunned collection of students, indie kids and misfits, The DeRellas strode on the stage as if they were The Pistols playing at Finsbury Park and tore into their set as if there was no tomorrow. Frontman Robbie spewed Iggy/Johansen charm and aggression, to the accompaniment of blitzkrieg guitars and primal drums. They were incredibly good fun!
Their album 'Hollywood Monsters' doesn't disappoint either, as it packs all the energy, excitement and impact of the live show, and indeed sounds as if it could be a lost classic from 1978. Standout tracks for me are the explosive 'She's a Pistol', the incendiary 'All Fired Up' (whose sound suggests that the band would do well gigging with The Towers of London), the highly pertinent 'Freakshow' and the glam-punk re-working of Carly Simon's 'You're So Vain' [whatever that was – Ed].
If you like your glam-pop-punk with huge melodies, trademark buzzsaw guitars and a real whiff of the late 70s, time to get yourself some Hollywood monsters.
