Dr Slaggleberry are pretty much the soundtrack to the deranged inner workings of mass murderer. And yeah, before you ask, that's a damn good thing. So unhinged they somehow make Rolo Tomassi and Mr Bungle sound like Keane covering The Feeling "ROCKMIDGETS.com"
DR SLAGGLEBERRY - Cross Kings, London, 15th Feb - Cracking venue - once a notorious Aussie riot ball of a boozer, now a relatively civilised, welcoming ground floor pub with a decent sized stage and fear not if you walk in and it looks like nothing is actually happening, don't think you've turned up on the wrong night - through the almost secret door you'll find a great big scuzzy pit of a cellar bar. And only an (increasingly gentrified) five minute walk down the side of King's Cross station, it's one of the best venues in town. Down in the cellar, there are masked madmen lurking in the gloom. There's a fuzzy huh? from the assembled other bands' friends, but we and a few others kind of know what's coming. Anyone familiar with Fantomas, The Locust or Mr Bungle is about to be made deliriously happy - if Dr Slaggleberry are anywhere near as accomplished as their four track demo. Ah yes... A proper drums/guitars/vocals four-piece, they're as ridiculously tight playing live as they are on those rough-and-ready recordings. They're young; the vocalist's cut-down mask somehow makes him look even younger, as he hunches over some kind of Star Trek prop that makes his voice do unnatural things. There may be about a million post rock bands in the UK at the moment, but full-on weirdass avant-prog outfits are still pretty thin on the ground. Dr Slaggleberry are at the very least Rolo Tomassi's equals when it comes to demented math-metal. They don't mind the odd slab of straightforward rocking out, though it remains a precursor to some precision insanity. The unprepared elements of the crowd don't know what's hit them, and for a few it's a revelatory moment. Dr Slaggleberry may have a daft name - a relic of the band's less serious early line-up – it is a rather memorable one though. By the end of the set they've acquired a reasonable chunk of new Slaggleberry converts willing to follow them around the south of England. Yes, something good evolving here (organ magazine)
