Rev up the throttle and let the dust fly!
Man's Ruin's Records latest entry into the "Stoner"
Rock sweepstakes may well find itself finishing first in this
rumble in the desert. Superb guitar work fed by low-end leakage,
distorted harmonics lending to an off-beat resistance that signifies
the "Module Overload" about to take place, this thunderous
foursome risen from the ashes of innovative, yet under-appreciated
acts such as Kyuss, let's loose and leaves nothing to the imagination
- especially the ringing sensation doing a number on both ears
several days later.
Feeding the machine and hitting hard like
a handful of dirt to the face with a mega-dose of the B.O.C.
classic "Godzilla," which comes trudging to the surface
stomping the ground with a fearsome intensity right from the
disc's first moment. But it's toward the middle here where we
really see "Fu Manchu" start to shine in the form of
their explosive title track and "Shift Kicker," which
has the makings of a big-time metal radio hit and Mojave motocross
theme song. Eat some dust and get some full blown, heavy-duty,
pedal to the metal rock and roll that'll leave you rubbing your
eyes for hours! |
