When this arrived sans a press release I imagined before playing it that it was an Overkill tribute act with a rather rational hatred for all things Uber and a desire to kill all of their drivers and owners. Of course that's not quite the case but we won't let that change my opinion of Uber.
This 5 track mini-album opens with Two Timin' Woman, a full on bluesy, blowsy cock-rock extravaganza with balls the size of water melons in a Led Zeppelin meets Black Crowes style tale of being caught in the middle again.
Sex On A Leash isn't about the band's fantasies for certain dogs but a bit of an S & M dream about wanting to be on a leash having sex with some hot woman over more Zep meets Airbourne while trying to wear even tighter jeans than either of the aforementioned. Yeah, you can just imagine the singer trying the chorus out on the woman of his desires to come and have Sex on a Leash and the look on her face that almost has a grin on it after the breakdown when the band comes back in.
Feel So Good is the reaction to not getting bitch-slapped for asking for Sex On A Leash. It again has a typical Blues-y cock rock riff as he sings about going out on the prowl for whatever comes his ways on the streets late at night.
Just One Thing is about going to a party and guess what? He meets a girl that he doesn't want on a leash. I think he just wants her over some balls-out Cock -ock and yes "women got to rock and women got to roll" is in the lyrics as no Cock-rock cliche goes unused as this is perfect for the Brah's to tap tins of Tenants together to as they agree with the lyrics and hope to pull to it. I'm guessing live the singer grabs his crotch a lot during this song and prances about a bit during the monumental guitar solo.

The closing Water Into Wine is apparently a demo and not a finished song which with this much over the top cock rock seems a bit of a lie. Maybe they wanted to make it really, really over the top or thought a producer might scale back the guitar solos and get rid of the widdly bit. I can't be sure, but I wouldn't have mentioned it if it wasn't a demo as it's not a bad Heavy blues rocker about trying to get another woman into bed. Of course.
If you like your cock rock with its balls unashamedly hanging out and full of attitude then Uberkill are well worth a listen.
