From the band that brought you Ass Cobra…
-
We Say...
It's not often you bungle your air guitar chords because you're laughing too hard, but Retox's anthemic opener, "We're Gonna Drop the Atom Bomb" could make you do just that. "Oslo woman / How did you get so dumb? / Suckin' on various thumbs," howls Turbonegro lead singer Hank Von Helvete. In fact, the band that once penned a tune called "The Midnight NAMBLA" and named an album Ass Cobra have put together so many deliciously crass, wildly politically incorrect lyrics, the humor nearly overshadows the music. And yet, tunes like "Hell Toupée" and "Every Body Loves A Chubby Dude" show the droll Norwegian deathpunkers remain energized, eight albums into their career.
Largely composed of power-chord based, melodic crowd-pleasers, there's nothing especially sonically sophisticated about Retox — perhaps not surprising for an album with songs titled "Stroke the Shaft" and "I Wanna Come." But the album works because it keeps things simple, often forsaking a guitar solo and simply pillaging forward atop intense, basic drum lines. "Welcome to the Garbage Dump" is Turbonegro at its Hobbesian best: nasty ("We can take a hike, we can fly a kite, we can burn some buns in the sun, at the garbage dump"), brutish ("Rope burns, turn the boy loose. Retox and turn the boy loose.") and short.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
