Chunks
Portland, OR
(Burger Records)
Dead-set on debauchery, the latest release from the gnarly Stumptown rockers is rowdy beyond belief. There’s no time for nuance as the gritty tones roll out on the dissident growls of “Wrecked” and “Drugs I’ve Taken,” save for the swaying sweetness of “4-Track Mind”—these boys are troublemakers with guitars. Waist-deep in fuzzy distortion, the album’s riotous everyman anthems barrel past in 4/4 with simple catchy choruses, brief metal breakdowns and blaring interludes. With 16 tracks of revelry and destruction, Chunks is like a booze-soaked carousel that leaves you dissolute, but wanting more.
