BLACK LIPS
LET IT BLOOM - LTD BLUE VINYL (FIRE RECORDS)
This blue coloured vinyl is exclusive to Indie stores, very probably including a DLC as extra bonus.
The classic third album from the Black Lips, originally released in 2005 and now back on vinyl and part of a series of Fire re-issues celebrating 20 years of the legendary garage rock gurus from Atlanta, Georgia.
16 tracks of grimy and chaotic punk, scuzzy and raw, and catchy as hell. The band at their trashy best, more melodic but every bit as psychotic.
If The Royal Trux had listened to the Troggs instead of the Rolling Stones, they might have recorded this album.
This baby is a masterpiece. Unapologetic southern-fried twang, crunching through the gears in a blitz of grimy bravado.
Their music twitches with an engaging, wired vigour." **** Uncut - "Their strongest effort to date." All Music
