THIS MOMENT IN BLACK HISTORY/ FATAL FLYING GUILOTEENS: Split: CDEP

Jul 13, 2007

A fitting split, based solely on the superficial fact that these two bands have, in my opinion, two of the coolest names in rock. This Moment in Black History: a more smoking live band you are not likely to find, and their recordings live up to their explosive shows. Imagine Tanner overdosing on blues and noise and you’re on the right track. Fat, greasy bass lines, pounding drums courtesy of a Basshole, skronking guitars, and howling vocals reminiscent of Jay from the Lost Sounds or maybe Chet from the Immortal Lee County Killers. Fatal Flying Guiloteens: Stonerific, like the Ace Frehley solo album put through the Drive Like Jehu filter. It’s definitely not ass, but they could spend less time working on dynamics and more time moving the song forward.
