One of the
guys from this band was on the tour with Wo Fat selling merch and Ken was
saying how cool his band was so they gave me a CD. Thanks guys. This is another
one of those duo (guitar and drums) that I always criticize as I always think
it would be so much better with a great bass player and with two, the guitar
players often don’t ever do any solos and then I get bored in the end. These guys are doing it right… 5 songs over 50 mins.. The CD
starts slowly with I am Fire. Dreaming is like a slow version of Wo Fat, with
those amazing fat guitar riffs and sounds and that husky voice (a bit like
Church of Misery at times). Cool vocals. After about 3 mins Dub has a short
spacey solo and a much longer one with some nice delays later in the track and
then some double tracked guitars as it really builds up. Fucking cool stuff. He
must do some looping to be able to do this live.. PorR starts slowly like the
opening track and a slow spacey heavy builder of a track. IT has some nice
spacey effects on the vocal in the later half and then a long spacey solo with
a nice bluesy feel and cool use of effects. Demons is a lot like what has come
previously, a slow growing track with some cool vocals and guitars. Kitchen,
the name of the drummer, is a very solid player and they have a great
chemisty.. The CD ends with another version of I am Fire (Slightly Burned). This
is a much more spaced out version of the song. I really dug it.. Damn cool CD….
Great work guys… Would be a cool band
for Roadburn!
This is a site where I post reviews of CDs, DVDs, LPs, and concerts. I have been writing music reviews on and off since 1984. I ran a heavy metal fanzine from 1984-1988 called Metal Madness and have been a staff writer for Aural Innovations for many years. I have also contributed to Chrohinga Well (RIP), Bad Acid (RIP), Lowcut (RIP), Roadburn and a number of other zines as well. I recently moved to Portugal so please request the new address and do not send any music to Denmark anymore. Tak..
