Wild
Eyes are a totally rocking band from San Francisco featuring the bass player
from the great Djenghis Khan. They are fronted by a powerful female singer.
This EP features 5 tracks in about 25mins and is the bands 2nd
release. Stiff Nites starts things off in a rocking way and at high speed as
this four piece really belt it out with some great guitar solos and energy as
well. Snakey Lady has a really cool guitar sound and killer bass groove as Miss
Gonzales belts out the vocals. The mid section the drummer is really awesome
and I like the way they make the most out jamming in a short 4½min track. Give
you Plenty Lovin’ ends side A with the same energy as the first 2 tracks a bit
of psychedelic effect on the voice. The last two tracks are 7½ mins or so each
and feature Doug from Glitter Wizard on keyboards. The Freak starts things off
and takes things down a lot for a more laid back bluesy, stoney track with some
nice organ. Around 2mins the emotional energy raises and then into a nice
guitar section. Great song… Alabaster Dream/hewn Runes is the last track and a
mid-paced one with a cool funky vibe in the 2nd half. I really like
this band a lot and it is a pity they did not make it this far north on their
European tour. Cool band.
