Worth the wait.

"Over three years since "Underground Communication" destroyed woofers everywhere, Lorin Ashton - aka Bassnectar - returns to wreak havoc on sound systems the world over with "Cozza Frenzy." Though not quite up to "Underground Communication's" masterpiece status, Bassnectar's latest effort is definitely worth shelling out your duckets and the accompanying risk of destroying your sound system. The collection of 15 songs runs the gamut from dirty, heavy grinds to playful dance-suitable, and even a little chillaxin thrown in for good measure. The album's title track blasts in two versions, the second of which is definitely superior and more in line with what Lorin plays live. In fact, if you've been lucky enough to catch a pre-Cozza Bassnectar performance (whether on the playa at Burning Man or in a medium sized local venue), you'll definitely recognize almost every track as he experimented and tweaked them prior to its release. "Boombox," for example, was churned out three different ways at performances we attended over the 2009 summer, while "I Am Laser" turned up during a sunrise set at Simpler Times (the DoLab's musical contribution to Burning Man). About the only tune that'll have you scratching your head is the odd "I Wish I Was a Hipster," which is flat-out awful and takes away a full star for its inclusion. We were also annoyed by the stock "eagle cry" on the otherwise perfect "I Am Laser," but these are personal quibbles that probably wouldn't even get noticed by most listeners. Other than those blips, however, you'll find this pounding set of tracks everything you'd come to expect from the Wizard of WOMP WOMP.

"Wow...Not since Fatboy Slim have I heard an artist with such contagious energy burst onto the scene like Bassnectar does with Cozza Frenzy, his amazing followup of Heads Up, and it does not disappoint. The beginning track, Boombox, sets the stage for what is a non-stop album of thumps and dubs mixed over excellent vocal samples. Normally I am not that big of a fan of electronica because i find that it usually seems dull and heartless, but not here. These songs ooze the love that went into them, and any fan of boisterous music in general will find this album a joy. Best songs: 1, 4, 12, 13"
