We don't need no steenkin' guitarists!,' Big Business are a two-piece band that do the sludgy, low-end stoner metal thing as well as any more fully populated act. Big Business formed in Seattle in 2003, comprised of two veterans from the local alternative metal scene: bassist and singer Jared Warren, formerly of Karp, and drummer Coady Willis, formerly of the Murder City Devils.

Big Business feature members of The Melvins. This is their second full-length and it's harder, faster, and catchier than the first, unfurling all the mammoth riffs, furious vocals, and blazing drum work you've come to expect from this LA band. 'Some of the most relentless, unyielding, and profound music in heavy metal today' - Thrasher Magazine. 'These guys manage to deconstruct, reinvent, and then rebuild the typical noise rock formula' - Chord.

A colossal, cudgeling record. One that's been along time coming & fills a real pronounced need for heavy, loud music. They have cultivated their 'fast & low' deal to the point where it's a thoroughly metallic affair-& that's the point. Where a lot of folks took quite along time to get next to what KARP did, a lot of the reviews have come back sort of missing what makes this record a crucial part of the heavy rock canon: it's the screaming, the leaden bass tone & the precise & loud-assed drumming. If that's    [ read more ]

Big Business are Jared Warren (KARP, Tight Bros From Way Back When, The Whip) and Coady Willis (Murder City Devils, Dead Low Tide). They play the kind of music that sounds like steamroller bass rumble dump truck crashing into Slayer having sex with CCR...on acid.
