Description: Additional Information from InnerSleeve Product Description Personnel: Tim Daly (saxophone). Audio Mixer: Tim Green . Recording information: Tim's Louder Studios, San Francisco, CA (2004). After two intense, ragged releases that showed developmental promise, Comets on Fire truly arrived with their third effort--and Sub Pop debut--BLUE CATHEDRAL. The group's blend of razor-edged garage raunch, Echoplex-fueled psychedelia, proto-metal riffing, and indie-noise cacophony culminates in heavy-rock nirvana here, with the overdriven guitars, swirling keys, and octopus-armed drumming going every direction. Though Comets on Fire's sound is unapologetically retro--following in the footsteps of 1960s pioneers the Stooges, Blue Cheer, Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd, and Cream--the influences are sublimated in a way that is artful, energized, and fresh. There are prog-rock touches on "Pussy Foot the Duke" and plenty of feedback-drenched dual guitar solos throughout (note the interlude on "Whiskey River") to keep the music circulating in the stratosphere. The surging processional "Brotherhood of the Harvest" and the minstrel-esque "Wild Whiskey" prove the band's penchant for textured, heady atmospherics, but heart-thumping, hair-raising noise is the band's real strength. The building thrash of opener "The Bee and the Cracking Egg," for example, is an appropriate signpost to the territory that lies beyond. Adventurous rock fans ready for something punishing, hypnotic, gutsy, and fun are encouraged to take the plunge.
