The Jesus Lizard
Willfully abrasive and atonal, the Jesus Lizard emerged in the early '90s as a leading noise rock band in the American independent underground. During the first part of the decade, the band turned out a series of independent records filled with scathing, disembowelling, guitar-driven pseudo-industrial noise, all of which received positive reviews in underground music publications and heavy college-radio play. By the mid-'90s, the group's following had grown large enough to convince a major label, Capitol Records, to sign the band.

The Jesus Lizard's second album followed in the vein of the first with little immediate variation: loud, excellently produced by Steve Albini, plenty of space in the recording to emphasize the sheer force of McNeilly's drums and Sims' bass, and more besides. The little-remarked-upon ability of the rhythm section to kick out some ass-shaking jams. -All Music Guide

Recorded October '92. 'A frightening jolt begins [Liar]. It is just one of many. Liar is a relentless serious of snaps and bangs and 'Boilermaker' is an excellent representation of the well-honed force that fuels much of the album. 'Boilermaker' tumbles and staggers, but always moves forward. It's a brief, twisted tale of infidelity full of rapid stop-starts, mewled vocals and a powerful, rumbling break. This is inspired rock. If 'Boilermaker' is inspired, 'Gladiator' is miraculo [ read more ]

Released August '94. '...Down stands as the last really vital album from the Jesus Lizard. It lacks the same degree of bone-crushing force and sweaty psychosis that made Goat and Liar instant classics (the band seems to be aiming for a slightly more subtle approach this time out), and most of the songs take a bit longer to sink in. But bassist David Sims and drummer Mac McNeilly were still capable of connecting like Mike Tyson against a speed bag on the heavy tunes, Duane Denison's sheets of chrome-plated g [ read more ]
