Ass Cobra featured a move towards mid-’70s punk & glam territory – in the spirit of proto punk pioneers à la The Dictators, The Ramones or late Iggy & The Stooges – plus a bit of New York Dolls’ travesty thrown in. Ass Cobra paves the way harshly, with a sinister wash of cymbals, loud guitars and articulate riffs think Poison Idea meets Alice Cooper. It is here, also, where Turbonegro developed their signature look: sailor caps, denim from head to toe, mustaches all around, and decidedly butch homoerotic accoutrements. Though Turbonegro did quite a bit of recording prior to this album, Ass Cobra set a new pace for the band, and enabled them to record what is by many fans considered to be their masterpiece, Apocalypse Dudes.Moshable magazine remarked: “The very best in obnoxious drunk punk, already a classic buy-or-die thing!”
