Rocket from the Crypt
This page is about the San Diego punk rock band Rocket from the Crypt. For the Cleveland protopunk band, see Rocket from the Tombs.
Rocket from the Crypt is an American rock band from San Diego, California, originally active from 1989 to 2005, second active during 2011 and again from 2013 to present.
The band gained critical praise and the attention of major record labels after the release of their 1992 album Circa: Now!, leading to a recording contract with Interscope Records. They experienced a surge of popularity with the release of the albums Scream, Dracula, Scream! (1995) and RFTC (1998), accompanied by numerous vinyl singles and EPs released on independent labels. However, album sales were not as high as expected and Interscope soon turned their attention to higher-grossing acts. The band left the label, and shortly thereafter drummer Atom Willard departed the group.
After a period of inactivity in 1999 and 2000, during which Reis formed Hot Snakes and Sultans and launched his Swami Records label, the band signed to Vagrant Records and recruited new drummer Ruby Mars. They experienced a revitalization of creative energy and released two more albums, but were not as prolific as in the past.

Track listing
Reviews
The Crypt (Kings Dominion)
The Crypt (formerly Tomb Raider: Firefall) is a HUSS Park Attraction suspended Top Spin ride located at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia. The Crypt was also the name of a giant top spin at Kings Dominion's sister park, Kings Island (Kings Island's version closed on October 30, 2011 while the Kings Dominion version still operates). Both rides were originally themed after the movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, until Kings Dominion, Kings Island, and the other three Paramount Parks were sold to the Cedar Fair Entertainment Company.
Ride
The ride begins when dramatic drum beats starts to play. Orchestral music starts to play as the top spin rotates backwards and the main gondola locks in position nearing the top. The ride rotates forwards and unlocks the gondola, inverting it two to three times as water bomb effects blast out. The top spin continues rotating forward and stops as the gondola locks in position at the top. The top spin slowly tips over as fire burst in the surrounding water and giant ancient head in front. Again, the top spin repeats the first section of the cycle while hasher fire and water bomb effects go on. The gondola inverts another five to six times until the music stops and you are let down.

Dumb Blind And Horny
by: Rocket From The CryptSomething's over my shoulder
Breathing down my neck
Moves like beast of burden
Townhome on my back
And these are the beasts that are in love
(And these are the beasts that are in love)
And these are the beasts that are in love
(And these are the beasts that are in love)
And these are the beasts that are in love
Dumb blind and horny!
Idiots in heat cruise stucco caves
Fight for a rotten piece
Claw their way to the bottom rung
Just to ride in the backseat
And these are the beasts that are in love
(And these are the beasts that are in love)
And these are the beasts that are in love
(And these are the beasts that are in love)
And these are the beasts that are in love
Dumb blind and horny!
