Make The World Go Away CD
Wizzard Sleeve
Label: HoZac Records
CD: $10
Just as the harrowing chill of summer's slow death drifts across the
land, the skin-crawling death-punk masterpiece debut LP from Alabama's
confederate glue-wave goth 'tards, Wizzard Sleeve hits the shelves and
drags all the sinister vibrations from the ugly side of psychedelia
right up front where it belongs. As their influences have cited, and the
self-described trinity of Chrome, Crime and Creedence settles into
place in your chemically-damaged skull, and the unexpectedly danceable
hits from their string of vile, self-depreciating 7-inch singles are
reborn with a devastatingly murky effect that will drag you down into a
hole faster than any over-the-counter anti-anxiety cocktail you've ever
ingested. Like Peter Murphy sucking on a tailpipe, Wizzard Sleeve are
the end of the line for your happy good times and the start of a new
atrocious standard in head-expanding, zooed-out and shut-in true punk
weirdness that won't be getting many brownie points with mom, dad,
church leaders, or parole officers anytime soon.
