Deadboy & The Elephantmen If This Is Hell Then I'm Lucky



If This Is Hell Then I'm Lucky, released in 2002 is the first album by a band called Deadboy & The Elephantmen who I became interested in because the lead singer of Acid Bath & Agents Of Oblivion is the man who started the band. While I originally wanted to hear this because I was very curious and anxious to hear the next thing the talented Dax Riggs was ready to give us, I quickly found it was good enough to stand on its own and not be associated with Acid Bath or Agents Of Oblivion at all. The only thing that may remind you of Acid Bath or Agents is Dax's songwriting, which is perfectly okay with me because that is what attracted me to Acid Bath in the first place. Dax hadn't released anything of his own since "Agents of Oblivion" in 2000 and this album once again amazed. Pick this one up and enjoy the haunting and psychedelic songs from start to end.

  1. I kinda like Agents Of Oblivion better, but that's just my first impression. I'd like to give both of Dax's projects a try.
