Mike Damron, the mastermind behind I Can Lick Any Son of a Bitch In the House is quite the character. Of course, anyone who names his or her band "I Can Lick Any Son of a Bitch In the House" has got to be interesting. Though, Mike Damron backs it up with enough musical muscle to kick anyone's ass.
Grabbing his band's name from boxing champion John L. Sullivan's biography (note: "John L. Sullivan" is the lead track on the album), S.O.B. kicks out muddy, swamp-country-rock that would make John L. Sullivan proud. This bad boy rocking machine known as S.O.B. just beats on you non-stop, from the eerie title track and the fight theme song of "John L. Sullivan", to the grittiest ballad you've ever heard, "Walk Across Texas".
This is muddy, not-to-be-compromised, dirt-under-the-nails rock of the working man. Though, it isn't all hard knocks and sad tales of life. On the reminiscent "Saturday", S.O.B. recalls hanging out with grandma, watching Saturday morning cartoons, Cap 'n Crunch, Dilly Bars at Dairy Queen, and a care free world that everyone will instantly relate to as it brings up plenty pleasant memories of your childhood. But in true S.O.B. fashion, Damron proclaims "Mama, you're never gonna hit me again" as he escapes from the troubles of life on his Saturday, living a happy life, and eagerly waiting for the next Saturday to come around ("Cause six days ain't too long to wait").
Rockers and country fans will get it, because this isn't pleasant pop. This music lives up to the true working man creed of the aforementioned genres, kicking out harsh, wild country-rock with plenty of heart and soul, and a tender spot to boot. Mike Darmon and his backing band do both musical styles justice, keeping it raw, emotional, and plenty lively. Don't miss out.

I Can Like Any Son of a bitch In The House (hereforth known simply as Sonofabitch) is a Portland Oregon based band led by Mike Damron. He took the title of his band from the the biography of boxer John L. Sullivan, and he also leads the album off with a track called 'John L. Sullivan'. Sonofabitch is a noisy affair that takes cues from rock-a-billy as well as country, while keeping one foot in the blues. Mike's vocals are very gruff and the lyrics are rough around the edges. Think Keith Richards and you sort of have the voice down, and if Keith sang a more folky style then he would be just like Mike. They could also be compared to Social Distortion but not as much punk. There are some fairly mellow tracks on the album like the title track and "Swing Man Swing" and they are along the lines of a Steve Earle tune. Creepy Little Noises is actually a very impressive debut album that should appeal to folk, blues, rock-a-billy and country crowds alike.

Social Distortion, Keith Richards, Steve Earle

Mike D is a songwriter of major caliber.This is folk music w/howling/soulful melodies, heavily strummed acoustic guitars,a wailing harmonica and more heart and soul than you can shake a stick at. Plus they got SONGS man!!! This is dark stuff from a top notch band and a songwriter that rivals that of Richard Buckner and damn close to Mr. Jay Farrar. And thats high praise indeed.

I read all the other reviews before i decided to write mine, and obviously i dont have to tell you about Mike D's voice or what the music sounds like, but I will tell you this, I can lick any sonofabitch in the house is my favorite band for several reasons. Not only are they the nicest and most cool guys you will ever meet, but they always put all they've got in to their music. That is the best part of listening to this cd, or any of their 3 cd's, the music is about something, it makes you think, it makes you feel. Not only do I recommend that you check out I can lick any sonofabitch in the house's cd's, but if you are ever able to catch one of their live shows, you will not regret it. They will blow your mind.
