Review
Psych/Doom/Stoner Rockers Godzilla In The Kitchen return with their latest single Empty Cribs and this track feels like a great homage to the mighty TOOL. The progressive rhythms, sounds, warped melodies and vocals are TOOL through and through. The song is excellent throughout with Godzilla In The Kitchen still adding their own great sound into the mix with swirling Psychedelic Stoner Metal grooves aligning perfectly to the dark complex themes that TOOL are known for.
The vocals follow the template that Maynard James Keenan uses quite closely but Simon Ulm still delivers his own great style. The song is quite catchy and eerie demonic in the heaviest parts but still offers some uplifting Psychedelic passages before the sudden onslaught of brooding Prog Metal energy which ultimately powers the track to its natural conclusion.
I would love to say the song is quite original but it follows TOOL too closely but I applaud Godzilla In The Kitchen for doing something vastly different that they’re mainly known for. This is still a fantastic track with lots of great things going for it and will no doubt go down a storm with the band’s fan base and even the wider underground Stoner Rock scene in general.
Words by Steve Howe
