Big Business - Here Come the Waterworks

Big Business is more than just one more band in a long line of two-piece bands trying to make their mark. Their compositions aren’t much like the transcribed messages of outer-space tweakers or however you’d describe Lightning Bolt’s music, these compositions are more in the spirit of the stoner-rock bands of the '90s. (i.e. Kyuss, early Fu Manchu, and Coady’s former alma mater, Murder City Devils.) Here Comes the Waterworks is a well-developed album that truly showcases where Big Business excel, bottom-heavy jams with melodic yelling over the top. But the lack of variety after the first few songs will quickly bore all but the most stoned listener. This album is highly recommended if you’re currently a fan of stoner rock; if you aren't, Kyuss might serve as a better introduction to the genre. [www.bigbigbusiness.com]
