Fantasy supergroup
Undead Undead Undead
By Stephen Lin · June 25, 2026 · 3 views
A power trio that shouldn't work and absolutely shreds. Buddy Holly's hiccupping croon and jangle guitar ride atop Cliff Burton's wah-soaked bass thunder, while Keith Moon detonates the kit like a man personally offended by silence. Imagine "Peggy Sue" rearranged by a wrecking ball with perfect time. Equal parts Texas charm, distortion pedal, and barely-contained chaos. Buy earplugs. Hide the hotel furniture.

The reviews
Three imagined takes on the debut album.
A supergroup that actually earns the name: Holly's hiccup-croon cuts through Burton's bass thunder while Moon dismantles his kit like he owes it money. Jangle-meets-distortion debut that proves scrappy authenticity beats polish every time. ★★★★
I went in cynical—supergroups are usually ego autopsies. Instead I got three arguments happening at once, all of them right, and somehow "Peggy Sue Gets Liquidized" became my favorite song about Texan chaos. The curse is broken.
Wah-pedal maximalism clashes with rockabilly restraint; the tension reads as indecision rather than dialectic. Energetic but unfocused—brilliance in fragments, coherence in none. Charisma cannot substitute for arrangement. 6.3
