Brainbombs - Urge To Kill

Finally getting a vinyl repress...is your turntable fit? Sweden’s Brainbombs have been carpet bombing eardrums since the mid-1980’s with their sadist aktions, so Load Records is proud to roll out the brown carpet for the vinyl reissue of 1999’s “Urge to Kill”. When this record came out the twin towers still stood and Boris Yeltsin was Russia’s drunk domo - the world was really not ready for a garbage can to be dumped onto its head. In the intervening years the monotoned, diseased-brained, riffsaw orgie with drug horns that the Brainbombs have perfected, has really picked up some steam. The hit off this record, “Ass Fucking Murder”, went to the top of the charts in Sweden in early 2000, so this is really a chance to grab on to a piece of history and on a format destined to be obsolete in a few years. Buy now and buy often. Be warned, sensitive listener, that this record traffics in some adult subject matter: Driving around in your car, being tired, picking up hitchhikers and killing them with hammers and screwdrivers. If this bothers you I am sure there is more pleasant music there, but for the rest of us there is Brainbombs.
