MÖTLEY CRÜE CALLING
Shout at the Devil turns 40. CREEM hits rewind.
September 1, 2023


The perfect world...little waterfalls tinkle cheerfully down the hillside and rabbits and chipmunks scamper playfully in the long grass of the sun-dappled meadow; bluebirds tweet their happy tweeting high in the linden trees, and all the men look like Mötley Crüe!! Art-wrecko cherubs squeezed into dead black cow, looking like life-size ads for Frederick’s of Hollywood’s fetish department, their heels stilettoed, their wrists studded, their chests chained, their crotches armored, and, topping the lot like a maraschino cherry on a chocolate gateau, the most unacceptably glorious brightly dyed shag cuts this side of the early ’70s!
