The low-end drone is its Salisbury steak, the L7-ish vocals are the mashed potatoes with gravy, and the ’70s acid rock nostalgia kick is its peas and carrots.
While using some of the great elements of Black Metal, the thin production, weak transitions, and uninnovative musicianship make this little more than filler.
There are plenty of clicks, clanks, and chugga-chuggas for all the fist-bang maniacs out there, but the true beauty of this release is in its subtle moments.
All the favorite songs are on this 12-track CD. “Manwich” features Ilsa spouting feminist spew while vocalist Anneka sings a lovely lullaby in the background.
