Cutthroat is shame at their blistering best. It's about the cowards, the cunts, the hypocrites, says vocalist Charlie Steen. This unapologetic new album with Grammy winning producer John Congleton at the helm is souped up and supercharged, taking on the big issues of today with shame's trademark sense of humor and visceral new musical ideas.
