evil blizzard: everybody come to church

Like Hawkwind on even more acid or Sunn O))) meets Butthole Surfers/P.I.L. with four bassists and droning powerful songs... Those masked marauding architects of cacophonic, bombastic, psychedelic, bass-bothering rock have been at it again, making another album of unrivalled and quintessentially unique rock music. To say that Everybody Come to Church has been eagerly awaited in many quarters is an understatement; fellow Northwest England-based musician Mr. Mark E. Smith, who's been heard to say of the Blizzard, "I like Evil Blizzard, they give me hope that music is alive and kicking," would no doubt agree. The Guardian are also huge fans of the band, having featured them on their cover and described them as "a fearsome collision of Hawkwind, krautrock, molten noise, dazzling psychedelic lights and weird, gnarly looking masks." The album was "recorded live in one day with minimal overdubs at Magnetic North Studios... a fierce, spontaneous outburst of evil noise." They had only four songs written before entering the studio and the rest of the album just happened around ideas they'd had kicking around. Everybody Come to Church features eight tracks of brooding, sinister psychedelic rock that will melt your mind and soul.
