FU MANCHU |
|
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 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 for 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! Released by Man's Ruin.
