Creature With The Atom Brain - I Am The Golden Gate Bridge

Jezuz Factory

CWTAB revolve around a sort of European splinter cell of the Queens Of The Stone Age stoner rock cabal. Main dude Aldo Struyf plays keyboards for Mark Lanegan, while members of Eagles Of Death Metal and Millionaire guest. The first half of I Am The Golden Gate Bridge is agreeable enough head-nod fare, refreshingly not out to please anybody but itself. Proceedings take a sharp left turn around ‘Park My Car Outside The Record Store’ a scorched earth groove reminiscent of early Queens. But that doesn’t prepare you for the lunacy of ‘Rapemans Scalp’, an epic industro-psyche nightmare that imagines the Butthole Surfers/Ministry collaboration ‘Jesus Built My Hotrod’ taken to its illogical conclusion. Marky Mark Lanegan himself guests on a few tracks, most notably on ‘Crawl Like A Dog’, where his desert dry roar is front and centre amongst the wreckage of gnarled riffs. Some quality head music.
