Torn
Untitled release
Reviewed by Doug Van Pelt
When Lemmy of Motorhead joins Biohazard for a jam session of early Atomic Opera covers, it comes out Torn. These guys from Canada have their guitar tones (karunch!) dialed in just right. The lead and vocal harmonies sound very tasteful, as is the songwriting. The lead-off track here, "Drowning," appears on this issue's Hard Music Sampler, which I'm sure will inspire many to get this 9- song full-length. Torn rocks hard and heavy, and sound like they could befriend a radio dj or two. To order, send $13 to: Massive Groove Productions, PO Box 250, Keokuk IA 52632
