More carnage from Eat Skull this week taking the form of a Woodsist 7" single. A-side 'Jerusalem Mall' is a twisted take on a pre-punk Stooges-esque vision of rock as a possessed and dangerous entity. The fairly formulaic rock groove is bastardized by crazed guitar soloing throughout and makes for a delightfully noisy listen. B-side 'Don't leave me on the speaker' sees the group embracing a shadows-esque structure whilst ramping up the reverb and the saturated guitar solos and final track 'Thank You! Smokebreaks' sounds a little like Thee Oh Sees for a bit before descending into an inexplicable mess of drums, guitars and shouty shouts. With all the info helpfully carved into the leg of a man on the back cover, you'll find this single both clear, informative and easy to navigate....don't forget about the dead kid on the cover....lovely.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
