Cold, sharp, wet…. Shoot for the sun Shoot for the stars We crack the skulls And drain the bars We’re born of blood and dust Unleashed into the wild Death picks up our shit And every man, woman, and child It’s the Ride of the Devils Teeth It’s the ride of the Devils Teeth It’s the ride of the Devils Teeth And we ride all night

Chong Li Close your eyes Your time has come You will not rise Chong li Time to sleep Now you rest And we all weep Chong Li Where will you go? No one can say We’ll never know Chong li Where will you go? Now we’re alone As the wind blows Chong li (x4)

Momma said I’m not like the rest Got no feeling in the middle of my chest I had a heart and now it’s a hole Got no love but rock n roll (Chorus) I am the son of a goddamn son of bitch Born in the river and raised on the side of a ditch Well bless my momma and bless my sister too I damned if I don’t, damned if I do. I play my songs in the key of red And they don’t stop until your dead Now tell me stranger what do you see That flash of steel is my melody (Chorus) (Bridge) Got no love, got no soul (repeat) I had a heart, I had a heart) (Chorus)

about

The new album from Devils Teeth is a spaghetti western garage rock operetta inspired by the character Chong Li from the martial arts film Bloodsport. Self-recorded, largely in a barn-turned-art space next to an insect-infested forest on the outskirts of Milwaukee, La leggenda di Chong Li sprung from the cinematic mind of guitarist/vocalist Jon Hanusa (Jonny Canine, Jonny Glissando), was produced under the keen direction of bassist/vocalist Eric Arsnow (Eric Incisor, Erico Bello), is driven by the unparalleled rhythmic prowess of percussionist/drummer Chuck Engel (Chuck Molar, Chazz Bolognese), and is augmented with the melodic saxophone contortions of Caleb Westphal (il Snaggletoots).

La leggenda di Chong Li follows up the band's 2018 debut Suki Yaki Hot!, reaching far beyond that album's garage-punk-surf mold. Following a sonic and narrative arc, La leggenda di Chong Li builds on the old sound with elements of exotica and spaghetti western, and with production qualities reminiscent of a rich Orbison record, to create its own Wall of Sound coupled with an other-worldly cinematic experience.
