MORGAN: :But they're more super bad ass rock n' roll. A case should be made for SOME bands like this, though. Motorhead is far too important to leave off, and another band who is steeped in rock, but really metal too (despite what they say) was Mearth from New Paltz, NY. They made a really metal-tinged album called "LB." on Magadee Records in the 90's. One of the heaviset things ever commited to tape, slogging, rumbling and mubling about roaring El Caminos, alchohol and sweaty skateboarding dysentery. Not many people know about it, but it is badder ass than anything. Just because something isn't famous doesn't mean it shouldn't be on a best ever list. That's like if I said "I had great sex", but you didn't know about it and so thought that getting dry humped by a tablesaw was better love making.

Thundering, driving rhythms and howling vocals make 'lb." a must have for any fan of Unsane, Jesus Lizard or June of 44. This CD almost captures the incredible power and melee of mearth's live show.
