Re-Post: Turn Me On Dead Man!!


Turn Me On Dead Man
"Technicolour Mother"
(2006)


INCREDIBLY Heavy San Francisco band that takes their name from a misheard phrase that was actually "Backwards Masked" on the  end of the Beatles' "Strawberry  Fields Forever" and on its second full length  release the garage-psychedelia outfit Turn Me On Dead Man does not disappoint.  TECHNICOLOUR MOTHER is a well crafted machine of super heavy psychedelia, with bits of tuned down "Bleach"-era Nirvana on the track "67 Dreams".  This record is a must have for any  fan of Jucifer in the "I Name You Destroyer"  days. Heavy as hell with incredible  garagey, tuned down, and sludgy pop  sensibilities! Jello Biafra knew exactly what he was doing  when he signed them to Alternative  Tentacles.
Track Listing
1. Child in the Sunburst Pyramid 2. 67 Dreams 3. Cyclops (Dedicated to the One Eye Love) 4. La Creature D' Amour 5. Pharmaceutical Rainbows 6. Wondermint 7. Galaxina 8. Her Planet Is Love 9. El Schizo 10. Goodbye Earth 11. Spiral Marilyn 12. Blank 13. Untitled

To wet your appetite....KEELHAUL II LP


Keelhaul
"II"
2000


Since they're playing Cactus Club tomorrow night (8/25/10) I thought I'd give you some love with this lovely LP from Clevo's finest!
This is a personal favorite of mine from Keelhaul.  10 years!?!  I guess it has been a good ten years before this ridiculously heavy record came out.  These dudes hail from Cleveland, OH and play a mathier style of sludge.  Say...The Melvins meets Coalesce.

SUPLECS
"Wrestlin' With My Lady Friend"
(2000)


  And then there's NOLA'S Favorite Sons... Suplecs!  My favorite Stoner/Fuzz band of all time!  Some of the heaviest breaks come from this record!  This album along with 2002's follow-up, "Sad Songs... Better Days", ranks right at the top with Fu Manchu's "King of the Road" or "Godzilla's Eatin' Dust".  As you can see by the song titles, there is a ton of hilarious tongue-in-cheek humor going on.  Just give the opening track, 'Stalker', a good listen.  Especially the lyrics!  Fucking Epic Hilarity Ensues!! I love this band and I'm sure you will too.

Suplecs
"Sad Songs... Better Days"
(2002)

This is the record.  New Orleans stoner rock at it's finest!  Dude...There's a hidden BEATLES (I Want You... She's So Heavy) cover right smack in the middle of the record... and end up pulling that shit off.  Just listen to it already.

The Great Disruptors




Sweethead
"The Great Disruptors" EP
(2009)

Sweethead is the latest project of guitarist Troy Van Leeuwen, and the former A Perfect Circle and Queens of The Stoneage guitarist certainly knows how to do these things with style, what we have here is simply a work of pure rock and roll decadence. I’ve always been sucker for the sleazy but smooth vocals of Shirley Manson and the beautiful presence and stylish vocal phrasing of frontwoman Serrina Sims takes me back to those happy Garbage 1.0 days.

  Yes, Sweethead: it’s the latest side project from the whole Californian Desert Rock scene, if such a thing can really be said to exist. The most recognisable face of the lot comes in the form of the fantastically dapper Troy Van Leeuwen, better known for his role as guitarist in Queens of the Stone Age, and he brings a lot of that bands sensibilities to Sweethead’s EP: fuzzed-out bass, a potent mix of sludgy and sharp guitar, and healthy dose of coked-out decadence. Rounding out the group on bass and drums respectively are Eddie Nappi and Norm Block, alumni of the Bubblegum-era Mark Lanegan Band, so there’s a healthy pedigree when it comes to this style of music.

  You know exactly what you’re in for by the time the title track - also the first song on the EP - hits its chorus: glammy garage rock, vaguely in the QOTSA mold but with a firm nod in the direction of classic rock (as exemplified by the closing track, a cover of the Kinks’ “Tired of Waiting For You”). “The Great Disruptors” opens with an ominous, circular bassline, over which Serrina Sims lays some slithering vocals, and proceeds as expected: spiky guitar lines, catchy chorus, and a lot of great-sounding-but-utterly-ridiculous lyrics. “Slashed tires, undercover vampires / left you open to a right-wing malevolence”.
  It’s Lullabies-era Queens with a slightly more pop twist, but it’s saved by enthusiastic performances all around - particularly Sims, who debuts here with a confidence belying her inexperience, sounding like Courtney Love if she hooked up with Josh Homme instead of Billy Corgan. She gets a little room to stretch out on “Traumatised and Dumb”, with the guitar holding back to more of a supporting role, and it turns out to be the highlight of the set - certainly displaying a grasp of dynamics perhaps underexplored on the other songs. Between Sims’ commanding vocals, an insidiously catchy chorus, and a wonderfully discordant guitar solo, it’s got all the necessary ingredients to be a dirty great rock song, and… y’know… it is.
  So, two great songs, two decent ones sandwiched in between, and a fun Kinks’ cover (which is up for free download on their website) to take it all home: you can’t really ask for much more from a debut EP. They’ll have to expand on their sound at least a little bit on a full album, but for now, they’re showing plenty of promise. And hey, it’s pretty exciting to have a band come out swinging, openly declaring their intentions to be glamorous LA rock stars, and for that band not to be BuckCherry or Hinder.  So there’s that.

The E.P. kicks off with the guitar driven title track ‘The Great Disruptors’. There’s a definite Queens of The Stoneage ‘Songs for The Deaf/Lullabies’ feel to the song, it has the straight forward catchy guitar and rhythm work that gave QOTSA such appeal. The classic, alternative rock approach is quite refreshing and a great platform for the ever so melancholic vocals. The music’s not overproduced either, just alternative in your face rock doing what it’s meant to.

"Belgian Experimental indie rock band from Antwerp, their music is often compared to queens of the stone age. But I like to think they've got their own distinct style. It's a sideproject of Tim Vanhamel (Millionaire), and Mark Lanegan also worked on this album. The album is a must have for everyone!"


This record is.
