Tarantula Heart

Melvins - Tarantula Heart (2024)

[Grunge Rock]

United States

Rating - 3 Stars

Melvins have never been a band that have cared what-so-ever about their listener. They make the music they want to make, and that can often lead to a jarring listening experience, with them on more than one occasion making albums that could be labelled unlistenable. With time and age they have slowly been writing songs that although distinctively them, have a more 'user friendly' edge. 'Pain Equals Funny' launches the album (album number 27?), and a hooky groove drags you in straight away. A few minutes in the song leaves the hook behind and the listener is on more familiar ground if they are a Melvins regular. A heavy sludge-dirge signals in what you will get for the rest of the track, all 19 minutes of it. Oddly thought it is very compelling, even though the vocals cease about 10 minutes in. It feels like the band has been making this music for so long now that the rest of world has finally caught up with their vision, and so they are the apex predators of the style. Once the near 20 minutes of the droning terror of track one is over, 'Working The Ditch' dirges its way into being, and the smell of burning spliff wafts from the speakers. Again though, the song is listenable and compelling - but it is unclear why. 'She's Got Weird Arms' could be called 'They Got Weird Songs' as an eclectic Devo-esque chant leaves the listener checking what they believe is the meaning of their existence, until they are punched in the face by the cacophony of 'Allergic To Food'. 'Smiler' continues the sludge to close the album, but picks up the pace, and closes what is possibly the most listenable album Melvins have produced in a long time (or even ever). Sure, it is still quirky and odd, and like every other Melvins album it will challenge you with every moment that passes to continue on or leave - but for some reason you'll find yourself making it to the end, and when you get there you just may press play to start it all over again.

Regurgitator - Regurgitator (1994)

[Alternative Rock]

Australia

Rating - 4 Stars

In 1994, there were so many Oz bands emerging in the alt-rock space, with different sounds surprisingly, so as a bunch of us moving on from 80's rock found a new home with bands like Regurgitator and others. Now the Gurge very much took up a left of centre approach. Not so much your straight up grunge band, nor your balls out Oz heavy metal at the time, not even the early stages of ska. Musically the 'Hamburger' release as it became known is an E.P. of 5 songs lasting about 18 minutes that quite frankly are as weird as fuck. It's all over the place track to track, mixed with heavy guitars, dub samples, chill and obscure song themes. And I love it!!!! This and the next E.P. in 1995 (New) made them a must see at a number of Big Day Out festivals for the years to come.

13 September 2024
Thrash Metal

'I Am The Weapon' is the fifteenth studio album by Flotsam And Jetsam. This album marks the first time since 2001's 'My God' that the band recorded more than one album with the same lineup.

Flotsam And Jetsam is an American thrash metal band that was formed in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1981. Before settling on its current name in 1984, the band had existed under three different names, Paradox, Dredlox and Dogz. They are also notable for featuring a then-unknown Jason Newsted, who was the band's bassist from 1981 to 1986, when he left the band shortly after the release of their debut album to join Metallica. Despite not achieving similar levels of commercial success as some of their thrash metal contemporaries, the band emerged as part of the second wave of the genre in the mid-to-late 1980s (along with Sepultura, Testament and Death Angel).

[E.P.]
14 June 2023
Thrash Metal

'The Amsterdam Sessions (Amazon Music Presents)' is a live E.P. by Metallica. The tracks were performed live in the studio in the Netherlands.

Metallica is an American heavy metal band formed in 1981 by vocalist and guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich, and has been based in San Francisco for most of its career. The band's fast tempos, instrumentals and aggressive musicianship made them one of the founding "big four" bands of thrash metal, alongside Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer. Metallica's current lineup comprises founding members and primary songwriters Hetfield and Ulrich, longtime lead guitarist Kirk Hammett and bassist Robert Trujillo. Guitarist Dave Mustaine, who formed Megadeth after being fired from Metallica, and bassists Ron McGovney, Cliff Burton and Jason Newsted are former members of the band. The band first found commercial success with the release of its third album, 'Master Of Puppets' (1986), which is cited as the band's best work. The band's fifth album, 'Metallica' (1991), was a turning point for the band that saw them transition from their thrash roots - it appealed to a more mainstream audience, achieving substantial commercial success and selling more than 16 million copies in the United States to date, making it the best-selling album of the SoundScan era. After experimenting with different genres and directions in subsequent releases, Metallica returned to its thrash metal roots in 2008.

'Mangled Demos From 1983' is a compilation by Melvins. It is a collection of various recordings from the earliest incarnation of the band first recorded in 1983. It is the only record featuring the original lineup (guitarist/vocalist Buzz Osborne, bassist Matt Lukin, drummer Mike Dillard). Tracks 3-13 were recorded by Michael Diamond at Sound Art Studio by Mud Bay, a suburb of Olympia, Washington, for possible album release. Ultimately the album was not released at the time, as no record label was interested in the Melvins until 1985.

'Soup' is the second studio album by Blind Melon. It is the band's last album released during the lifetime of vocalist Shannon Hoon. It received generally mixed reviews from critics and fared poorly commercially, with the album only reaching number 28 on the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart and going on to sell 217,000 copies in the United States by October 1996. Hoon's death from a fatal drug overdose two months after the album's release resulted in the album's promotion being abruptly cut off, further affecting sales.
