Clouds - We Are Above You


I think I will join the Doc in his trial to lighten things up.


So here I present you a 70's blues/rock-punk-macho-metal album with the most arrogant title ever. Courtesy of the ever-expanding in both quantity and quality Hydra Head Label, which keeps on impressing me with their choices of bands.


This here album for instance can't decide itself what it wants to do exactly, more Led Zeppelin or more Motörhead, Black Mountain or Black Flag? Clutch or Boris?


Chances are if you like any of those bands, or all of them, you will like it. And if some of them are too one-sided to you and bore you to the high heavens *humming* then you will probably like it even more, because it never stays the same. It's not TMV'S Goliath, by all accounts, but then again you don't have to be borderline mental to be able to enjoy it.

It's just a solid good piece to rock out to, and for those of you who feel light-headed and need an energy-boost each morning on the tube to work, this could just turn out to be worth a spin or two.
