INSTANT ASSHOLE-Straight-Edge Failure
(Tankcrimes, CD)
John the Baker, from the Burnt Ramen studio, has a new band and a pissed-off attitude, much like his last band, The Malnourished,but the musical approach is more in-your-face. This time out, hes joined by a new crew, including Strung Up drummer Bill. As with many of the Bay Area bands, its aloud, fast bruising sound. Walloping, with plenty of thrash but also some snaky, Flag-ish guitar lines. The music isnt one-dimensional and neither are Johns vocals,either. Sometimes throat-ripping but also dripping with sarcasm. Their credo? Make fuck, not war. Hey, its an update of the 60s slogan and those hippies wouldbe scared shitless by the energy emanating here. Brings to mind another slogan:burn baby burn. (www.karaterex.com)
