Walk To The Fire
Monoshock
Released:
Jan 1994
Label:
Blackjack
This double album from a largely unheard mid-'90s heavy space rock outfit is a benchmark of loud, crappily (in the best way) recorded psychedelic music. Basically Monoshock made music directly descended from the Stooges, filtered through Hawkwind then set on fire and shot out of a cannon. Air-guitaring riffs, brain-flaying sheets of delay, drug casualty vocals, too much distortion, too much reverb, the ugliest of surface noise -- it's all here. Even the album cover is an artist's rendering of an acid dream one of the band members had. Walk To The Fire is perfect.
