Description
Raspberry Bulbs – “Before the Age of Mirrors” LP
Marco del Riolong is in possession of a fine legacy, making heavy music in projects like Bone Awl and He Who Crushes Teeth. For the curiously titled project Raspberry Bulbs (I don’t know what it means, but I fear it ain’t too polite) he has been joined by Nick FortĂ© of Rorschach/Computer Cougar. Blackened, occult-punk is the predominant theme – as in, black metal meets Black Flag. Scuzzy and dirty in a Stooges, lo-fi sense; dark and menacing in a scare-the-bejesus-out-of-the-fearful sense.
