Review:
Greetings all,
I got to check out the
brand new album from noise rock band Netherlands. First off, they're
from New York, not Western Europe. And second, this three piece is a
guitar, drums, bass synth trio. Mind is officially blown. To be
honest, I am a bass guy, so I was taken back when I realized all the
low end was not coming from the good ol' boomstick, but to be
completely honest, you wont miss it. This trio is fierce and the
songs are amazing. Netherlands will not fuck with your ADD. None of
the first 8 songs clock in over 4 minutes, the final scorcher goes
over a bit, but they will get you with their seemless and unique
blend of noise rock with some nwobhm/80's metal vocal. The songs
bounce all over you in an epic whiplash that is sure to please.
The
openers, L M M and Elephuck,
are ragers that will pummel you while you smile. The third track
Thumper is angry
and intense. The band does not let up at all over the next two The
bottom of the Ocean and New
Jocks before careening wildly into the
awesome Dots.
The luxurious battering rams Thrombosis
and Alien Pussy do
just that, ram you hard and make you want more. Before they finally
let up and deliver the mammoth In Cyan to
send you on your merry way.
I was not at all
familiar with Netherlands before this album, but I can not say enough
about how righteous and heavy this record is. I am hooked and you
will be too. Check it out and bliss out, or break some shit or
whatever flops your mop. Highly recommended!
