On the disc's 11 nasty cuts Popa Chubby has flipped the blues-rock label around, putting rock at the fore and the pedal to the metal with fat, scalding guitar sounds and stories plucked from true life. Some, like the rubber-burning title track and the pleading 'A Love That Will Never Die,' are autobiographical tales that channel what's deep in his blood as well as the fevered pulse of the city Popa Chubby has called home for 30 years.
