Heavy Baby Sea Slugs - Teenage Graveyard Party EP (2017, Heavy
Baby Records)
Release date : January 21st, 2017
Recorded as a
companion CD to their Japan/Taiwan tour in January 2017, Heavy Baby Sea Slugs’ EP Teenage
Graveyard Party sounds like a business card where the band presents itself
as a Sludge/Punk American band that isn’t afraid to get to experimental places.
The song
‘’Zero One’’ is a notable demonstration of this noise/experimental aspect of
their music. As other moments, there’s a heavily felt influence of
Post-Rock/Metal band Swans as well.
‘’Teenage Graveyard Party’’ and ‘’King Midas Of Shit’’ are highly on the
punk/D-Beat side of their infectious music. When ‘’Pit Bait’’ starts and gets
going it has this blend of genres that fits well together as from Punk, Black
Metal, to Sludge.
Heavy Baby Sea Slugs are making a form of Metal/Punk that
isn’t afraid to go into unexpected places while keeping a genuine sound of
hardcore/punk. It feels honest and led me to put an asterisk along their name
to catch up with their future releases. A nice EP that if on a LP length should
use some guidance and editing.
