There are threads throughout Porcella, intertwined and woven into one another, the theme of a finite existence, one rich with precious moments illustrated and then bitten into and feasted upon. It's one of those rare albums that has depth without a bottom, there are no limits and certainly no place for conformity. Porcella appears to live, breath and evolve and perhaps that's why its full impact is best appreciated at a live show, it inhales all that surrounds it or came before it and exhales producing a lavish, indulgent and rich sound served on a humble, raw and hand made platter. The Deadly Snakes remain true to their punk and soul roots here. Their confidence and genuine talent gluttonously oozes, cascading in the form of good new fashioned rock n' roll. The unity of Porcella, ripe, rapacious and yet refined - will convert you and then pervert you.
