CD Reviews

Revival? What Revival?
Clark Paull | Murder City | 02/04/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"If news of last year's overblown "garage rock" revival, which has already puttered out, ever reached Australian shores it was probably met with snickers since ragged louts like the Lime Spiders have never stopped believing in the beautiful, high-octane noise that guitars, bass, and drums can produce. This lovingly compiled collection of album tracks, rare B-sides, and EP cuts is a career retrospective of Oz's wildest band (no small claim) whose psychedelic, three-chords-and-a-cloud-of-dust attack is anchored by the arteries-bursting vocals of appropriately-monickered front man Mick Blood, who sings every song as if he's heard news of an H-bomb scheduled for down under tomorrow. There's no gristle in any of these songs, just plenty of red meat, snarling guitars, big drums and grit from a band whose singles, especially "Slave Girl," deserve the same recognition as those produced by the London and New York punk scenes. Play it at a Stroke or White Stripe today and watch them scurry for the safety of their MTV."

Right In the Nuggets!
John C. Hocking | Ann Arbor, MI United States | 02/07/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Jaw-dropping collection of ramped up Garage Rock that can only be the direct descendant of the bands featured on the classic 'Nuggets' collection.
Lime Spiders bust out old-school Garage style with twice the humor and three times the melodic sense. These are wickedly catchy jams with raw, searing guitar and oddball lyrics delivered with frenzied intensity. It's the real stuff.
If you dig the classic garage sound, or more modern rockers like Electric Frankenstein or the Hellacopters, this disc will hit you dead-on."
