English:CD-review
  Van Muylem    15 december 2021

On December 17th, Electric Talon Records will release 'Manchester Strawberry Blonde', the second video from the new split 'Blunt' with labelmates Troll Teeth!


Wax Mekanix and Troll Teeth, coming off of their respective 2020 releases entitled Mobocracy and Goes Nowhere, Does Nothing, have teamed up to release one of the most diverse splits of 2021. What happens when you mix acoustic-rooted psychedelia and hard-nosed stoner rock? Well, you’ll soon find out. Upon Wax Mekanix reaching out to fellow label brethren Troll Teeth, both artists set out on a mission to challenge themselves artistically; taking the lull in live music to hone their craft and deliver their fans with something new yet familiar. “"We at Troll Teeth used this EP to experiment a little with songwriting and performing” says Troll Teeth frontman Moe Eccles “We tried to get out of our comfort zone a little more than we normally do.” Wax Mekanix follows this up by stating “If you’re expecting Mobocracy version 2.0, or me to pander for streams, followers, eyeballs, or likes by calculating some kind of mind-numbing, mouth-breathing sameness, I ain’t your guy.”

From the almost tribal backbeats of “Freak Boutique” and “Head”, to the hard nosed in your face fuzz of ”Barbs on the Wire”, Blunt will leave your ears feeling satisfied and itching for more from each of these artists. Blunt will be available October 22nd, 2021 on all major digital platforms courtesy of Electric Talon Records.

Wax Mekanix:

The first track sounds sexy and cool, almost as if Shakira wrote the song (it has the same vibe). Head is thus already a must have and will make you feel much happier! Be ready to dance on it! Manchester Strawberry Blonde has a video and sounds like a very religious song with a tribal touch. Freak Boutique has a higher tempo and launches ray of lights at you.

Troll Teeth:

The Pigs Are On Parade sounds a bit like psychedelic rock in a very old school way. It's a nice song and I like it! Last one is called Barbs On A Wire sounds like on fire and could actually become a hit if enough people notice it and spread the word.
