CD Reviews

The future starts yesterday

Roy Pearl | Vancouver, BC | 03/22/2003

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Imagine if the Velvet Underground had given John Cale the boot and replaced him with Roxy Music's Andy McKay. Now imagine them playing White Light/White Heat in some condemned industrial space to an audience of disinterested rats. Chugging electric drones, honking 50's sax that accelerates into avant jazz shrieking ..., and Papa Lou's semi-tuneful drawl fighting through the mix. And don't forget about the rats. That, in a rotting nutshell, is American Death Ray's Smash Radio Hits. Decadent, trashy rock & roll from the retro-future."

Essential Listening for 2002 and Beyond!!!

"Derivitive yet refreshing. You've heard it all before yet you feel like you're hearing it for the first time.

Listen for tracks like "Arm so Long" (sounds like a classic Bowie ballad) and "Roller Coaster Ride" (Roxy Music,"Virginia Plain").If Lou Reed, Bowie, Roxy Music and Morphine had a love child...you may just have a bouncing American Death Ray."
