godheadSilo
Skyward in Triumph
[Sub Pop]
Rating: 7.6
Contrary to what you've heard, godheadSilo is not a two-man project.
That's what they'd have you believe, what with their drummer and bass player
oozing sludge like a deranged anus. No, my friends, there are really six people
here: godheadSilo and Black Sabbath.
No, really. If you don't see visions of Ozzy while spinning tracks like
"Booby Trap" and "Buttress of Solitude," then you're too busy
listening to Ozzmosis. [Sidenote: I knew a guy who went through rehab
with Ozzy and swore up and down that Mr. Osbourne was a really cool, gentle
natured guy. I believe that, but I'd also add that he sucks now.]
Meanwhile, back at the review, all was going nicely. godheadSilo won me over and was
singing their praises. The sun was shining. People in foreign countries were
bleeding. A small child lay outside my apartment window, rolling around in a
puddle of his own sick. I took a slug of whiskey and danced around to the title
track, complete with rap by Calvin Johnson. When I finished, I put the disc away
and started another review...
