Review

Finally, an unadulterated rock & roll record to represent 1999. Trance States in Tongues doesn't deliver much in the way of experimentalism or balladry but instead lets the decibels roast on a pyre of flaming guitars. While these sludgemeisters are known for delivering meaty live shows, their albums haven't been able to match the thrill. Not so this time, as frontman Markus Durant's mostly indecipherable but completely involved vocals--hence the title--meet up in the mix with the rock for a wall of dirty delight. Forget that Zen Guerrilla hails from San Francisco. Trance States in Tongues recalls Detroit's legacy of middle-finger rock & roll à la The Stooges and MC5. Standout cuts include "Slow Motion Rewind," "Ghetto City Version," and a take on "Moonage Daydream" that reshapes Bowie's classic space ballad into an all-out rock & roll anthem. --Jason Josephs
