- Stage Fright
- ….Burned?
In 2008, Suicide Bill and The Liquors’ “A Little Bit….Burned?” is definitely worth five bucks. Never critically acclaimed, but often ashamed, the boys sometimes rock and sometimes acoustic through Bill’s best collection of songs. Think part 80’s Minneapolis, part 70’s stadium, and part modern-day-quiet-complaining. 16 growing older, hate the day-job, lonely, unsure anthems. A Suicidally Powerful Equation…..
