Archie Bronson Outfit Sharks Tooth (Domino)
4/5
By: Liane Escorza
Archie Bronson Outfit return with a new album, Coconut, in March 2010 and its first single ‘Shark’s Tooth’ is a mega-explosive ready-steady-go gift to us all. Just by listening to this track one can figure out the nature of the entire parent work: psychedelic, visceral, aggressive and addictive.
Initial rhythmic pouncing and distorted guitars with a metallic taste set the pace to a military march with a smith’s hammer banging on iron as a base and a filler of frenetic strobe lights of epileptic sound. Kinda.
But then... then there’s the galloping of additional guitars in-between, like we’re listening to a reinvented 21st Century spaghetti western soundtrack. Sam Windett’s vocals keep steady, deep and harsh in pressure despite the gradual moulding of the riffs into expanding fields of deformity. ‘Shark’s Tooth’ bites instantaneously, grips with force and doesn’t let go. Ouch.
