MOTOCHRIST


"Greetings From the Bonneville Salt Flats" (Heat Slick; 2003)

Reviewed by Mike SOS

Motochrist's hard rocking stance sounds like the last hurrah of hair metal gone biker, as this 12-track album chock full of dirty grooves and loud guitars fits as well on the Sunset Strip as it does in a backwoods Harley bar. 

While there's a thread of street punk running through this CD, it's covered with a glammy Los Angeles coating mixed with a honky-tonking primer, making songs like "6 Shooters, 6 Strings and 6 Packs" seem as sincere as possible.

Rating Guide:

A classic. This record will kick your ass.

Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.

So-so. You've heard better.

Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.

Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
