This
is a pretty cool split 7” from two SF bay area bands. Side A starts with
Buffalo Tooth, are a trio with two of the three members from the band Glitter
Wizard. This does not sound anything like Glitter Wizard, just to let you know.
Their track is called Shit Show and is a very short 2½ min song. I don’t know
how to describe this but it is fast, frantic, crazy high energy raw rock and
roll… Very low fi but powerful stuff.. Flip the red vinyl over and remember it
plays on 33rpm for the Creepers. Memory Fog starts off quite mysterious, and
you might say creepy, with a sort of surfy like guitar and reverbed vocals but
the track slowly builds up especially the drums as it all gets faster and then
the break and a more melodic section that reminds me a bit of 80s King Crimson
(the melodic elements) meets Pink Floyd 1969. Cool song even though I would
like some lead guitar and not just the melodic theme repeated over and over and
over. This track is nearly 6mins. I don't know how many of these they pressed.. Check it out.
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..
