Back in ‘99 I had the pleasure of hanging out in the backyard of the Playboy Mansion during the filming of the truly horrible film, Toxic Avenger 4: Citizen Toxie. While there, I met some guys from a band called The Locust, who were pretending to play their instruments… surely to be overdubbed by their actual songs in post production. They were nice enough guys - they even threw me a CD to review, which I never did. I feel like kind of a bastard for it… which is probably a fair estimation.
So here it is, that review: Each song is a minute and 30 seconds of complete fucking insanity that melt your brain. Read that 20 times and you have the review. So if you like your music like you like your sex (quick, angry, lots of incoherent screaming) you’ll dig the Locust. And from the looks of it they’ll be in your town in support of their latest release “New Erections”.
