Description
The QOTSA stuff on this CD is alright, typical early stuff. It's quite listenable, and 'The Bronze' has been reissued on the 'Stone Age Complications' EP. If you're a completist, like me, you'll want to have it. The real revelation of this record however were the two Beaver songs. They are absolutely outstanding. I'm a big fan of the desert rock scene, and have nearly everything by Kyuss, QOTSA, Unida, Brant Bjork etc., but at times it could be said that a lot of it, particularly some newer QOTSA stuff, lacks a certain musical maturity. Not these Beaver songs. They are charged with an underlying melancholy, the singers voice has a plaintive ring to it that just draws you into the songs. They're heavy, and atmospheric, but not so heavy as to alienate people who don't like heavy music. They just have that something more...
