The Grey Spikes - Year zero #1996

I Grey Spikes, nati e sciolti nella metà degli anni '90, arrivano da Los Angeles e questo è il loro secondo lp. I quattro ci sanno davvero fare e sommergono l'ascoltatore con tonnellate di garage rock'n'roll di qualità. Voce graffiante, sonorità sporche e ruvide, fanno ricordare da vicino la lezione dei NEW BOMB TURKS, ma evidenti sono anche le influenze proto punk che contribuiscono a imbastardire ulteriormente il tutto (la cover di I wanna be your dog degli STOOGES a fine disco ne è una conferma).
Il merito di aver commercializzato questo eccellente prodotto va, ancora una volta, alla lungimirante etichetta giapponese 1+2 records, ora defunta, responsabile di uscite interessanti che altrimenti sarebbero andate perse (alcune le trovate qui).
Raw power!
