MINUS
Jesus Christ Bobby (Victory)
Reviewed by John Sekerka
Never mind an ice-cream headache, here's an Icelandic migraine that'll splatter
yer brain matter David Cronenberg style. Apparently there's more to the little
grey island than Bjork. Minus waste no time scraping fingernails on blackboard
with a relentless sonic attack even Painkiller might envy. Noise yes, but is
there something else to keep me from scurrying away you ask? Sure, but you have
to be resilient. Three tracks in and there's a quick change of pace,
demonstrating actual music ability as instruments separate from one heaving
mallet into discernable and sometimes melodic parts. True, the barking aural
assault soon returns, but there's enough interesting twists to appease. For
those who crave the noise, and plenty of it.
