Jerry Only – Anti-Hero (2022)

July 30, 2023

Oohhh hooo ohhhhh Illuminataeeee. Imagine my face when this dropped, as a hater of Devil’s Rain! Fortunately, on repeated listens I am very happy to report that this has much more go in it then Devil’s Rain, and I’m actually very excited that Jerry Only has launched a solo career (or at least put out a solo record). Realistically, and respectfully to Jerry and co. having the right to tour all those years as Misfits, Devil’s Rain should have been released this way, under the Only banner.

Hey, the tracks here are more catchy than they have any right to be. I don’t doubt for a second there’s some studio trickery going down, especially in regards to Jerry’s voice, but I am very much surprised that I can play this all the way through, and have repeat listens, without wanting to cut off my ears. It’s no De.A.D. Alive! but it’s still pretty funny. It’ll be interesting to see where Jerry goes from here.
