#2453 Sonic Pulse - Lager than Live

Stuck in a rut with all the same bands and all the same scenes, I've taken to searching random words and plucking albums that have interesting names / covers. Cratestreaming. Streamdigging? Workinonit.

Turns out these guys are from Boston, and cover the Adventure Time theme.

Off to a good start.

Just check that logo, with the soniC Pulse battleaxe. Check that impossible cartoon lady, all boobs and beer and boobs. Check songs called Queen of Beers, Bong Zombies, and -- fucking, combining all aspects of DnD nerdery and Andrew WK shitcockery with banal punnishness: Eye of the Beerholder. I've never seen a song title sum up a band so well.

It's all good, dumb as shit fun. Totally committed to a lack of commitment, utterly unabashed lets-get-fucked-up rock and roll, the real Wyld Stallyns, when Bill and Ted grow up and get dumb jobs and get baked and accept the joys of their lives as they actually are.

Accepting the joy of life as it actually is, that's all Sonic Pulse delivers.

Who could ask for anything more 3.5/5
