50 Foot Wave - Bug

Bug by 50 Foot Wave

4...according to our on Wed 06 Dec, 2006.

Kristen Hersh must be feeling a tad left out given that Pixies are (again) being routinely touted as the most influential & greatest alternative behemoths ever to have graced the floodlit stadia of the world blah blah blah. So she's gone & recorded an intense hard rock mini album that recalls Throwing Muses being gang banged by Queens Of The Stone Age. Her new nom-de-plume is 50footwave (all one word). Her voice is transformed into an anguished primal roar, the guitars fuzz & growl & the exemplary drumming is tight, heavy & playful. All the Muses quirky signature changes & odd way with a pop tune are present, yet this is a  meaty & intense affair. A bit of Babes In Toyland in there as well 'd say! Nice one! On 4AD
