repetitive, stupid, noisy trash rock from St. Louis band Strangulated Beatoffs. Stan Seitrich (Drunks With Guns) and Fritz Noble had up to this point released some really kickass 7"singles including
Shake Your Dick,
Practicing to Be A Doctor,
Lick My Butthole, and
The Beatoffs, which was four surprisingly sincere Beatles covers underneath their usual noise. now in 1992 they got a new double-single out with special guest Mike Deleon (Drunks With Guns, Fruitcake) on bass. fuck yeah it's good. "Exorcist III" and "(Theme From) Fart Inhaler" go hard - both have slow driving rhythms and a repetitive sample looped ad-nauseum just offbeat. it sounds like the other two tracks use live vocals instead of samples but they're similarly repetitive. it's what they're going for
okay, that's me explaining "repetitive" but why did i say "stupid"? it's stupid to loop a sample of someone deadpanning "i wanna jack off" through a song. hilarious but stupid. that's "(Theme From) Fart Inhaler" and it rules
"noisy" is easy. during the original 1984-1987 run of Drunks With Guns, Stan had already found some of the most guttural, filthiest, most aggressive guitar tones i've ever heard. he still remembers how to do it five years on. that filth is sliming down the walls all over "Exorcist III" and "(Beat Me With A) Rump Roast" and it's sick
on the positive tone of this review combined with adjectives like "trash" "repetitive" "stupid" "filthy" "ad-nauseum" etc. it's noise rock
after this one, Strangulated Beatoffs started moving away from the guitar-heavy stuff and really dug in on the repetition and samples, starting with their 1994 album
Days of Our Lives. i probably won't write about those albums but they can be cool too if you're in the mood (fucked up or insane.) they call it plunderphonics on RYM. cool band
