Payload
of Atomic Warhead Nightmares- Summer 2014 tape review
Sounds like a d-beat raw punk band
with a bit of an evolution in proficiency (in song-writing, sound quality,
tone, almost everything). Aside from the
bass being almost inaudible, everything is a step up from the last tape. Two old songs, three new ones, and a new
singer make for an evolved group, though they have many more steps to climb as
well. The sound is improved, but the
band would greatly benefit with a more controlled guitar sound, turning up the
volume on the bass, and an increase in the sound of the cymbals. That would do the band justice, no
doubt. The lyrics are some of the usual
anti-war/anti-system stuff you’ve come to expect of bands employing exclusively
black and white imagery. Still relevant
to our world situation, however. The
name of the band is a friggin’ mouthful, but they still have the potential to
go places. Who’s got the 10 ½?
