It&#8217;s a dirty half dozen sleazy anthems delivered with some snot n lip gloss, made up of some new tunes and a wonderful rework of FD4 &#8216;Lorraine&#8217; and &#8216;Monkey At Sea&#8217;. They&#8217;ve found their natural home with Tracey&#8217;s sneering vocals on them and boy are they delivered with a sneering rasp that fits perfectly.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that&#8217;s not enough to make you sit up and take notice we mustn&#8217;t get carried away, because it opens with the magnificent &#8216;Bullets&#8217;. What a kicks off that is. With a sleazy bottom-end rumble that sounds like a stolen dirty T Rex riff and supercharged it to within a hairs breath of overheating. The vocals sounds fantastic man and with some really sharp riffing and that bass (which is filthy!) It&#8217;s the solid tempo that evolves and rolls around your head dropping off earworms left right and center. A top opener that sets the tempo for what follows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thee Acid Tongue have recorded an absolute Banger here, pure fire (as the kids say) &#8216;Electric Head&#8217; roars in on the back of &#8216;Bullets&#8217; with an appetite for mischief and sounding like its about to kick off just for shits n giggles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Electric Head&#8217; gives off an air of pulverising attitude, and punk rock grime that spits and snarls like a good un, don&#8217;t get too close kids this one bites. Right, where were we? oh yeah, &#8216;Lorraine&#8217; this song needs to be heard far and wide and it bugs me so much so that I&#8217;m mentioning it again. What a stupendous tune and this version reigns supreme. This take is delivered with an iron Fist in a velvet glove and again Tracey&#8217;s vocal takes it somewhere different all together and I like it, I like it a lot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;Monkey At Sea&#8217; has me thinking &#8216;Punishment Fits The Crime&#8217; by the mighty Ramones, nothing wrong with that I might add. The breakdown and that bass slide is disgusting in the best possible way, boundless energy much like most of the release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With only a couple of tunes left &#8216;Lake Of Tears&#8217; sounds like it could be the big rock ballad, Nah, course it isn&#8217;t its a galloping beast, prowling around my speakers and straining at the leash like the bastard child of classic Motorhead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My only complaint is there are only six of the fuckers. Each one is as good as the last one with the furious &#8216;Blood Sex &amp; Alchol&#8217;  thrashing about refusing to go quietly&nbsp;Sounding like a top night out to be fair Like if the Runaways are waiting in some sleazy dive bar waiting for Filthy Phil and Lemmy to rock up in a rock n roll taxi from Hell and that&#8217;s a mighty fine place to be sonically speaking. Fantastic stuff, boundless energy, really well-crafted songs delivered with blood, sweat, and passion. Don&#8217;t stop keep recording and give the people what they want and need &#8211; top tunes all the way.  Thee Acid Tongue deserves to be in your collection it&#8217;s as good as anything you&#8217;ll hear in 2023 (someone should also press it up on record it needs it &#8211; Go buy it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buy <a href=\"https:\/\/theeacidtongue.bandcamp.com\/album\/kinky-liquorice-2\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/theeacidtongue.bandcamp.com\/album\/kinky-liquorice-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author: Dom Daley<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The lineup of Thee Acid Tongue sees Tracey shift to vocals on this sparkling half-dozen bangers.
