Whatever people find attractive about picture-discs is beyond me, but this one really should win prizes for being ugly to the point that it actually hurts to look at. Yes dear readers, the new Nitwitz 10" EP is out and ready to scare away prospective buyers. Too bad, 'cause the sounds included are up to the band's usual high standards. If, like me, you've long lost track of the several dozen line-up changes within' the Nitwitz, rest assured that the Slugman's signature is easily recognisable in all four tunes, 'cause no matter who else is involved it remains his band. Riff heavy as always, all songs are winners, but for me 'Nuke Rock City' (co-written with Turbonegro's Happy Tom) tops the lot, pounding to the point of bein' almost glamrock-ish, this should help 'm sell at least another dozen copies. 'Cause if this thing gets the same kinda distribution as previous Nitwitz wax, all I can say is "happy hunting".
(BTW: Anybody out there able to land me a copy of the N's split 10" w/ Holy Sheep?).
