C'mon Get Heavy With Made Out of Babies




















What if, Tonya Donnely, of Belly and Throwing Muses, was in a band that shredded? And what if, when that band shredded, they shredded really f'n hard and really f'n dirty, like Big Black or The Jesus Lizard? What if Tonya Donnely, when fronting said shredding band, wailed like she never wailed before, like she already had one foot in hell and the rest of her wasn't far behind? Honestly, I never spent much time pondering those questions, but I found the answers when listening to Julie Christmas and her band Made Out of Babies. Amazing what you can find when you don't know what you're looking for. Now, if I could only find my cell phone. It's gotta be in the couch cushions, or in yesterday's pants, or left somewhere stupid, like on the night stand where it belongs.

Better yet-- what if the only connection to Belly was the fact that a chick was singing the congs.

I think of MooB as PJ Harvey if she shredded. For heavy Throwing Muses I turn to 50footwave.... http://www.throwingmusic.com/freemusic/

I'm having a hard time stopping myself from listening to this CD repeatedly. This CD and Torche's have been my heavy records of choice this summer.

I have to give Torche another chance. I've heard so many good things about that disc, but I wasn't too impressed when I saw them at the Grog Shop. Sound issues caused their bass to sound like a flat tire on the freeway. That, and they were up against Boris.
