Lenguas Largas - S/T 7'' DCR 021
I don’t mind weird if it rocks. I don’t mind psychrock if the “rock” part’s not just a handy post-it note whacked onto the side of masturbation. Lenguas Largas has the Roky Erickson Weird-O-Meter pegged. They’re also carrying a mile-long locomotion’s worth of quarry-grade rock, freshly blasted from the earth. Featuring the voice and guitar of Isaac of The Swing Ding Amigos and Shark Pants, the drumming of both Dickie (Shark Pants) and Chris Kohler (Sexy), and Southwestern stalwart Mark Beef, this makes total Tucson sense. It’s a nice counterpoint to the Swing Ding’s full assault and sidles nicely up to The Resonars. –Todd Taylor (Tic Tac Totally)
