Meatbodies (CD)

2014 debut from this band lead by Chad Ubovich of Fuzz and Mikal Cronin's band. Loud, fast, wild - you've heard this all before but you haven't because the Meatbodies are brand new and they're going to dominate your eyes and ears and give you a bang over like you've never had before. While both of his other bands have kept him busy over the past few years, his mind was always on his own songs. Eventually, in the Red took notice and the Meatbodies were added to their roster. Sequestering himself in master studio magician Eric King Riff Bauer's San Francisco studio/psychedelic sanctuary, Ubovich busted out an album's worth of songs, barely leaving the small Technicolor underground quarters. Once the tracks were done, he sent them up to Chris Woodhouse to give them just the right final touches of perfectly controlled chaos. And perfectly controlled chaos is what this trifecta delivered. The self-titled record is a sonic experience truly evocative of it's creator: Unabashed, unrestrained, beautiful and strange. Riffs for days. It's everything we've come to expect from Chad Ubovich.
