I’m sure a good number of you have heard the Van Halen-inspired “Ain’t Talkin’ ‘Bout Dub” by Apollo Four Forty. The album it’s off is Electro Glide in Blue.
Both punkier in its cynicism (“Know Your Product,” “This Perfect Day”) and slicker in its approach, using full horn sections and more ambitious arrangements.
Swamp Terrorists have a good intro on Five in Japan, dark and menacing, but it simply moves into an industrial/metal hybrid that does no justice to either.
