Gallery
of Mites is the perfect example of a supergroup.
Featuring a ten-man roster, with no less than five lead
guitarists (including members from Monster Magnet, Lord
Sterling, Halfway To Gone, and more), this is THE band to
see this season.
Bugs on the Bluefish is a full-out assault. Guitars
are everywhere, the drums are continuously solid, and harmonica is
added regularly for extra appeal. "Suicide Punchline"
is a particularly good track; it's an explosive, guitar-heavy bundle
of Stooges-influenced rawk. "A Man Called
Shit," meanwhile, is spaced out intergalactic axe mayhem that you
won't believe. This is why they have five guitarists.
The rest of the album is similarly wicked, and Bugs on the
Bluefish will
make a fine purchase for fans of heavy metal, doom rock, and stoner
rock. If ya like it hard, yer gonna dig Gallery of Mites.
