Starr Tucker: CD Reviews

Here's what I found in me box this month...

SYMBOL SIX - EDEN BURNING - LOU SIFFER AND THE HOWLING DEMONS - MURDOK - SUPERMONKEY DEATH GRIP - SUMMER OF SIN - HUSSY - STATIC PEOPLE - TANADRA

Rocktober...

SYMBOL SIX bring it home - Monsters 11 is hard as nails, So Cal straight up and down rock’n’roll highjacking you off the bar-stool and shoving it into your bleeding little ears. You’re gonna love this. Dunno where the rest of LA La land has been up to, but gone is the usual crap of long haired ol’ farts sticking tongues out with fuckin’ devil fingers at ya and the usual boring old guitar licks and tricks like it’s no ones’ ever heard it before... What you get is the feeling that Symbol Six just robbed a bank before hitting the studio for this cut.

Texas band EDEN BURNING get us Banged Up And Dirty - 13 tracks raising the stakes. The offspring of LA Guns, Alice & Poison, this is pure sleaze rock’n’roll which include top of the heap “I can make my guitar speak” leads from Matt Steele and growling lyrics from Phil Salazar bringing in a fresh breeze to the table.

LOU SIFFER AND THE HOWLING DEMONS just in time for Halloween, The Mosher is 7 inches of pure Swedish pounding metal vinyl magic – Smell the burning rubber as you race to the gasoline alleys…

MURDOK - We Drop Bombs Like Hiroshima – This laidbackpunkrock sound is killing me! They call it “groove metal”, then they turn around and it’s a crazy speed punk shot in the arm - A bit Mad Caddies and having so much fun doing it… Kick ass songs with a kick ass attitude… just like it’s supposed to be!

SUPERMONKEY DEATH GRIP experimental, alternative, weird yet kool, something’s going on here. Bowie, Eno… ‘Who Wants To Find A Safe Place’ gets you into the right kinda trouble… Just put me on The VSS Enterprise and get me the f*** out of here!

SUMMER OF SIN Tour 2010 is brought to us by Jamsync Music – it’s jampacked with plenty of guitar sustain, yeah’s and lashings of rock & roll riffs, they present to you some of the most current run of dirty rock & roll, sounding more 80s than the 80s – here you have Asphalt Valentine, Mama Kin and Modern Superstar keeping it fresh! (Wadasfuck was that?)

Girl just wanna get laid! HUSSY with the tagline dirty, trashy rock-n-roll - gotta give it a listen! So the whole office is jumping up and down and up and down. This dirty trashy sound is superbly simple and all you ever wanted in a girl n her band from NYC. Funny thing, she really means it, like it’s full of some kinda message. Just get to see Hussy and have a lot of fun doing it. Hussy will be looking forward to your comments…
