KRESCENT 4

There's some hot rock on this 5 song EP from a band that mixes influences like Mudhoney, Soundgarden and The Cult. Sometimes they don't absorb those influences completely into their own thing, but the resulting derivative music is still stormin'. We get another single-name vocalist (thank GOD! We were running low!) in Stimy, another brother combination (oh, whew!!) in guitarist Kris and drummer Kurt Keller, and a bass player named Adam Nine. I don't know if that's just his cool name or his model number. He can play, so I guess that's all that matters. They can all play, there's some decent writing going on and I suspect they'll absorb their influences more as time goes on. My big bitch with this disc is that the only place I can find it is the label's website, where they're charging 15+ bucks for a 15:11 EP. C'mon, get real. You want people to hear your artist? Don't make them laugh and surf away.
