Description
Over the course of the last 8 years, Orlandos GOLDEN PELICANS have made a compelling case for themselves as one of the planets most relentlessly malevolent ensembles, both live and on record. Thankfully, however, this is not an episode of Hot Bench and rather than finger-pointing and tearful recriminations, Ill offer as evidence their succession of titles for the Total Punk and Goner labels with which the quartet of vocalist ERIK GRINCEWICZ, guitarist SCOTT BARNES, bassist SAMMY MENESES and drummer RICH EVANS have made reached American punks apex in the 2 thousand teens more than once (like goalposts, the thing moves around a bit). On the bands 2019 entry, Grinding For Gruel, recorded by RYAN BELL of GG King / Predator, Grinewicz fatalism and Barnes not-nearly-heralded-enough virtuosity are captured with the sort of chromatic sheen that wouldve at one time been considered unthinkable (well, before electricity was invented, anyway). Is this the finest, most fully-realized Golden Pelicans release to date?
