Bent folk
J. Norris | Boston | 02/15/2007
(3 out of 5 stars)

"If you can get past the horrifying inanity of the lyrics, there's actually some cool music on here. The "fuzz guitar" is really the make or break ingredient; the songs which lack it (probably about a third of them) tend towards silly, boring, generic hippy acoustic drivel about love and . . . well, mostly just love. BUT (and this is a big ole' butt)there's really some great guitar work on here, particularily on the tracks which alternate between the blazing, ahead-of-it's time distortion and the tranquil, pastoral, one-with-nature finger picking. It's a great dichotomy, demonstrative of some real imagination and an appreciation of the fact that (in spite of their lyrics) all life is not just flowers, kisses and sunshine - and that there is beauty in ugliness as well, as reflected in the admittedly somewhat off-putting name of the group. It's challenging music, but if youre into seminal, esoteric, quasi-psychedelic classic rock stuff, it's worth the effort."
