Phil Dirt - Reverb Central - PO Box 1609, Felton, CA 95018-1609 USA Split: Man or Astro-MAN? vs. Jonny and the Shamen
 | This is a pedestrian split single. Neither band is at heir best. |
Picks: Jonny and the Shamen - Stratosphere Mortuary Theme
Track by Track Review
Jonny and the Shamen - Stratosphere Mortuary Theme Spy Surf (Instrumental)
theremin wailing, grinding monster spy sounds, espionage garage feel, and a quirky riff that's just shy of melodic. Solid double picking, with speedy finger work.
Man or Astro-MAN - A Synthesis Of Previously Unknown Substances Surf (Instrumental)
I just can't get into Man or Astro-MAN? much. Their music just isn't melodic enough to stand up to multiple listenings. Sorry.
