Save your laughter, save your prayers… the sun won't shine today-in fact there's a bleak shroud circling over the earth and then in a blink, everything just falls to pieces… and in the distance a rolling thunder can be heard, faintly at first, but then it gets louder and louder and all of a sudden… Hell on Earth! The band is Motochrist and their sound is pure hellish rock and roll fun-amped right to the edge, it's an angel with a dirty face… a smiling devil with a drink in his hand. Amongst this latest second wave of true rockers gearing to plant their bootprint across the fleshy ass of compromise, this titillating trio of misfit kids, all originating from the proper upbringing of pilfer and booze put the foot right through the floor on this impish new creation… With varied backgrounds as The New York Loose, Stiv Bators and The Humble Gods, not to mention The Throbs-well I guess I did mention it-expect nothing less than a show of sheer intensity, a rocking good time in the likeness of yesterday's cult heroes and let's take an extra swig for the undying not-so-bygone era that saw 80's glam rock spread its luster on the world. At times punkish, at times poppy, but always downright nasty, "Sun Won't Shine" makes it "clear" that this isn't some smiley faced little snot-nose pretty boy singer doing grade school love literature… nor is it the tough-guy wannabe street craft that continues to die a slow death in its own pool of misery. And how about doing a song titled after their own lead guitarist? Yes folks, you too can be like "Marc Diamond!" "666 Pack" features eight sweaty examples of D-Generation like melodies shrewdly combined with Ramones-like grooves and dead on demon driven angst and fury set to foul language and fueled up bantering… Circus of Power revisited maybe? Motochrist-the state of the art spokesmen for silliness, sarcasm and spite… so on that note, I think I'll take another six… to go! Released byRAFR Records Review by Vinnie Apicella |
